I have a pattern for a real quick travel jewelry bag if you're interested. PM me.

Here is one, it's called an Exerise Block. It's just a plain little block of wood, probably measures 1 1/2 inches all round the edges. The tag says:
Instructions:
1. Place block in center of floor.
2. Walk around it 2 times.
3. Sit down on the sofa.
Congratulations! You just walked
the block twice.
A guy displaying his woodwork at a craft show had these for sale at a $1.00 a piece. Great for stocking stuffers.
The tag is attached with a pretty ribbon.

speaking of dogs-------------a lady in JoAnns was looking for fabric to make dog collars. she simply uses webbing, covers it with pretty fabric and adds "D" rings. I made a couple for my DD's dogs. I'll get a pic for you.

Do some in flannel-------------they feel sooooooooo good. After using one for awhile who cares is it matches the bed And these are quick to make once you get your rythm.

Credit card holders or quilted coin purses. I made them for Christmas and they were using them before the wrapping paper hit the floor.

Here is a good idea , its a baby teething towel. you use the plastic that is in cereal boxes, cut it in square or circle then sandwich it between material like flannel, and sew it up
u can quilt a little figure on center it crinkles and makes noise for infants when they hold it or put it in mouth and its safe
also i make change purses they are easy popular. Had a pic on line here almost have tutorial done
