Ideas for Selling on Etsy

Hello,
I've been so busy sewing lately I haven't updated you on this blog!  I decided to look into making some things and selling at http://www.etsy.com/.  It's an online site where crafters can sell their creations or things to make crafts, etc.  I've been kicking around some ideas on what I could make to sell.  So far I've been thinking about making purses, wallets, and aprons.  Also, since I have a nice embroidery/sewing machine I may embroider some things to sell.

I also thought of making Bible/book covers.  I made a pattern off one of my book covers and then decided instead of crazy quilting that pillow I mentioned weeks ago, I would crazy quilt the book cover.  I have all the pieces crazy quilted, but I need to select some fabric for the lining.  Here's a picture of the front piece for the book cover:

I think it will turn out nice whenever I get it finished!  It is time consuming so not something I think that I would want to mass produce.  But I might make some more sometime.  You just never know!

Thanks for reading my blog!  By the way, my sewing business is now officially on Facebook! 

Happy Sewing!

Marla
