The possibilities are endless!
Do the items have to be Christmassy?
Are they to be sold?
Who is the target audience?

It does not need to be Christmassy. Most people attending are from a small town. Yes, the items are to be sold.

Have tried to think of things that would be inexpensive enough for children to buy for their friends all my brain can come up with is hair ornaments/clippies for girls but I'm sure others will give you a long list.

Biscornus. Any size. They don't necessarily need an embroidered design on the bottom. There are dozens of quilt designs which would make them look elegant for Christmas presents. The design by Mops in DBC looks gorgeous.

Tissue box holders, tissue pack holders, usb holders, small boxes, FSL doileys, FSL bowls - more time consuming and more expensive to make.

Christmas table centres - patchwork or patchwork and embroidery mixed.

Embroidered Christmas drawstring bags with a few Christmas mints in them.

Just to name a few.....

Covered coat hangers- easy to make from fabric with a lace edge. Make a tube twice as long as the wooden hanger,[wrap hanger tightly in a long strip of padding or soft material first] and just push it on, and it gathers for you as you push. Sew one end before you put it on, then hand stitch the other. Screw in the hook, and add some kind of embellishment to it, flowers or similar. Sell well. Can make little ones for kids as well.

How about wallets, glass holders, teepee bags, crayon holders, crochet hook holders or knitting needle holders, pin cushions, wall hangings for holding your threads.
Good Luck!
