Top Products I Sew to Sell

[@ZeldaSews]

I'm so glad you are having a lot of fun making these gift items. Have a blessed day, and happy sewing.

[@debbieparker3691]

I think it's very nice that your sharing your ideas with others. Thank you!

[@diannewalls7363]

Thank you so much!! I retired last year and would like to do something productive with my time at home....I make cards but I love to sew...u have given me some good ideas!! I can't believe I didn't find you sooner!! Thanks again!!

[@donnathompson8634]

This is the first time I saw your channel. I love you ideas, thank you.

[@SewnByNikki]

Glad you like them! I hope you stopped by to watch a few others. Let me know if you have questions.

[@margaretswann3634]

Thank you for the great ideas. I never thought of a fabric bracelet with scraps!

[@SewnByNikki]

I end up having so many scraps that I make the bracelets. Young children love to spend allowance money on them!

[@SkinnyFiberHawaii]

I live in Hawaii and just wanted to express a big "Thank you" for sharing these top sellers. I have come to a standstill with sales so wanted to get other ideas. Much appreciated.

[@SewnByNikki]

Glad it was able to help you. I'll be putting out a new list of items soon that I've done well selling in the last few mths. Stay tuned.

[@andreamarshall9677]

Thanks for sharing your insights, good to know what sells and why!

[@SewnByNikki]

These products sell most for me. Keep in mind, depending on where you live, you may need to adjust your items to your audience!

[@janicelove3406]

I getting ready to do my first craft show, this information was so helpful. Thank You for sharing!

[@SewnByNikki]

How did your market go? Did you watch my video on selling at markets, by chance? I hope it was helpful. You will learn a lot after your first market..... and you will probably change your setup and bring less stuff. It is a learning curve. DM me if you have questions.

[@janicelove3406]

​@@SewnByNikki Thanks for the information it went very well, I did great!

[@lisamarieesposito4842]

I’m really interested in the fabric bracelets that you show in this video! I would really like to learn how to make them. I love using scrap fabrics and I have some people that send me their scraps so this would work awesome for me!!! Thank you!

[@Lehcar1]

I made the triangle neck pillows for a nursing home, helps to keep heels off mattresses and necks straight

[@gingernotturno5365]

Love your videos, What I find sells really well is dog leashes with the poop bag holder and tooth fairy pillows I just got on Pinterest to find cute ones and made up my own patterns

[@SewnByNikki]

I really believe anything you make for dogs or cats do well. In my experience, many people love purchasing items for their dogs and cats because they are like one's child! I am always asked about bowties and vests for dogs but I stay away from pet items. Good market to tap into!

[@betsylewis9432]

I wanted to let you know that I just made your coin purse. The comments were closed so I could not comment there. Your tutorial was perfect and I made a coin purse for my 2 year old granddaughter.

[@cathyshafer8962]

Thank you! I’m newly retired and want to do what I love to do but never had time when I was raising my family. And I want to make a few bucks doing what I love so you have given me ideas.

Hope they help. Depending on what area you live in, they could be a good product for you as well.

[@suewatson8688]

Would love to know how you price your great products.

[@SewnByNikki]

I do have a video on that. I posted it a year ago for my Patreon members. I will release it to everyone else in the coming months. Send me an email to [e-mail] if you would like to see it then. Otherwise, your message will get lost in the flood of my YT comments and I'd love to be able to help you. : )

[@jayneevanderheym352]

The heat/cold packs. It looked like little disc’s in the plastic bag? Sorry, do you have a video on how to make, or a better look?

[@nikkybruce7806]

I think that's just the pattern on the fabric

[@RoeRoe123]

I was thinking the same thing. It looks like buttons

[@crystalrose.wellness]

It looks like discs, but upon further investigation I think the fabric is golf balls and golf tees and that’s one rectangular pouch with the rice inside

[@jayneevanderheym352]

@@crystalrose.wellnesshahahah I think you are right. Thank you. lol feel a bit silly now. 😅

[@crystalrose.wellness]

@@jayneevanderheym352 I was right there with you!! I was so confused. I looked at it on a bigger screen with the image full screen, then I paused it and finally figured it out 🤣

Hi, can you do a tutorial on how you make your book markers? Thanks

[@michellebrewster8733]

Great video, thanks for the inspiration! This is exactly what I wanted to see to encourage me to take the step into selling for profit. Grateful that you are one of life's sharers, God bless 💐

[@knitknack2285]

do you have a tutorial for your water bottle holder and the tote with the key attachmemt. ooh i also like the purse with the wallet. great ideas! tfs

[@SewnByNikki]

Yes I do! There is a video for the water bottle holder. Were you able to find it?

[@wendysipes7229]

Wow so happy I found your video and subscribed. Looking forward to checking out some of your tutorials.

[@connieacree4006]

Thank you for sharing your creative and wonderful ideas. God bless. 😊❤❤

[@SewnByNikki]

You are so welcome! I hope you are able to use some of those ideas.

[@TutressToYou]

Those are great ideas. thanks so much for sharing.

[@SewnByNikki]

Glad you like them! Hope they work for you for your customer base. Sometimes, depending on where we live, we have to change our products to our audience. Talk to your customers about what they seem to like. That could also help you!

[@margaretturner4467]

Wow, thank you for the information. I am stalled in my sewing journey and your items have inspired me to start again.

[@naomiallen1149]

hello Ms Nikki I want to make tote bags and purses and yours are just great. Thank you for sharing.

[@sunsilk131221]

Hi, your ideas are great! Thanks for sharing them. Will you be doing a tutorial on the fabric bracelet? A great cheap item for kids to buy at craft boutiques. Thank you

[@SewnByNikki]

I will do one with a few options, yes. I'll be compling a new video with additional items soon.

[@sarahale7214]

I make the bowl holders in sets of 4 and I make a fabric box to store them in. I give them as gifts.

[@SewnByNikki]

It's definitely a popular item around the holidays. I don't like making them because they are time consuming but I do sew them in the fall season........

[@sweetlittlemeowcatnipempor4055]

thank you for this video! I'm a newbie at sewing but I've been selling crocheted items at markets for two years. I definitely needed inspo as to what kinds of things I can sew.

[@85thAndWade]

Glad to see you’re back great ideas!

[@virginiaharrison6711]

Very very helpful. I sell at markets and need to take a cue from you. Thank you.

[@SewnByNikki]

Glad it was helpful! Let me know if you have questions. I love the vendor community!

[@ivelissebouet9563]

Thanks for sharing. I’m teaching my daughter how to sew 🧵 Do you have any ideas for me to teach her as a part of her lessons for her to sell in her Coop handmade sale? Thank you so much in advance for your reply.

[@SharonBell6123]

I love this video, and your friendly style! I just wish you could have given us an idea on pricing. But thank you!

[@SewnByNikki]

Great idea but the pricing will vary depending on where you live. What people would pay in NY is different from what people would pay in FL. I know it sounds crazy but it is true. I will post a video in my FB group about it!

Hi Nikki, I just found you, and am so glad I did. Also in Florida, I am doing my first crafts fair this week. Would love to see a video on how you find/choose venues.

[@SewnByNikki]

I'd love to hear how your first craft fair went! Tell me about it! If you haven't see it, take a look at my video on market tips. You can find it in the playlist. I give vendor tips; hopefully you came across it to help you out before your first event. : )

[@thefacetsofdee8291]

Loved your tips! Are the water bottle holders insulated?

[@SewnByNikki]

Yes they are! It is a utility fabric for insulation. I buy it at Joann's.

[@jesspeak7543]

Thanks for the great information.

[@margaretswann6805]

Thank you for your great ideas! I am new to sewing but I feel I can make some of your items. I subscribed because I like the way you teach (even your tiny mistakes are fun to see). Have a blessed day.

[@SewnByNikki]

I don't mind showing my mistakes. It shows we're all human and they can happen when you're sewing! If I cut everything in the editing process, you wouldn't learn. :) Glad it helps you. I'm sure you can do some of these, even as a beginner!

[@karenpalmer9988]

Just discovered you tonight and subscribed... I love all your ideas, and think all of your items are beautiful. I downloaded the dog bone pillow because it looks so cute and comfy. May I ask what you used for the seam allowance, and also how stiff do you stuff it? I'm assuming not too much or it would feel too hard I guess right? Anyway thank you for what you do as one sewer to another you have a wonderful day...

[@SewnByNikki]

You're welcome! I use 1/4" seam allowance ..... you don't want to use a smaller one because when you stuff it, you could potentially pop your stitches. Sew with 2.5 stitch length and 0.00 for the stitch distance.... Hope it comes out well!

[@susanthornburg8123]

I glad I found you 😇💙😎

[@draghynmystress]

Thank you so much for sharing!!! I want a video on your sewing machine.. What brand it is, features, etc. I bought a basic used sewing machine from a pawnshop and want to upgrade.

[@SewnByNikki]

Hello. I actually have a video posted on my channel about the sewing machine I use. You can find it under my Beginner playlist. It's a Brother. I love them - beginner friendly but doesn't hurt the budget!!

[@SewnByNikki]

I do have a video on how to sew the water bottle holder. I don't remember my measurements because I make them in bulk during seasons but the video will tell you! Let me know how your bottle holder turns out.

You mentioned you sell your products at your booth? Why don’t sell them online? Or that doesn’t work? Thank you for sharing 👍💕

[@margiecastonguay517]

What are the dimensions on your heating pad and how much rice do you put in it..

[@SewnByNikki]

The heating packs can be any size you would like; as small as hand packs if making for someone that walks in a city out in the cold, or as large as a heating pad for a knee or back. It varies. The amount of rice you put in it will also vary. For a 5x7 heating pad, I have put 2 1/2 lbs of rice with essential oils mixed. See what works for you after you hold it in your hand and maneuver the bag.

[@williejo55]

First time watching your skin is beautiful

[@margiecastonguay517]

What is the finished size of the neck bone pillow please

[@SewnByNikki]

Finished size is approximately 16.5"x8".

[@KitSimon-sw4ye]

How do you figure what to charge for your products?

[@SewnByNikki]

It really depends on your area, where you live or are selling. Selling in person is different from online but the rule of thumb is 3x your cost. I teach this in my retreats. Maybe one day I will put together a video on that.......

[@bn5202]

Would you be willing to give us an idea how.much each item sells for? I understand factoring costs and time, and that each region would have slightly different demands for items......but as a newbie there's items I have no clue how.much things could sell for. Thanks 😊

[@SewnByNikki]

The problem is, we all live in different parts of the world. I would research your area and see what items go for. What I would sell an item for in Florida will cost more in New York or California. I think it also depends on your rate you want to charge for your services but that will be determined by your need to recuperate funds spent.

[@amycolvin6902]

Hay Nikkie I was wondering how you get your bowl koozie so thin?? Every time I make one they feel and look thick

[@SewnByNikki]

Hello! After I turn mine right side out, I iron each side of the bowl before I topstitch. It makes it look good and helps it go under the foot easily (remember, you're sewing through 4 layers)! Iron, iron, iron. It helps!!!

[@tutsecret499]

The material to stuff the pillow is expensive. You have to put a lot stuff inside the pillow. One small package of stuffing is about $7 or $10 and to stuff this pillow needs several bags of stuffing, thus the pillow will get expensive. How you handle that. Am I buying the stuffing in wrong place.

[@SewnByNikki]

I would buy the 10lb box at Joann's when it is on sale. It will stuff 10 pillows (1lb each) and cost $33.00 for the box. Your cost will be $3.00+. That's cheap for what you can resell the item for!

[@lindahackney665]

Hi Nikki, I would love to make the things you make to sell for my craft shows, however, The voice was not loud on your video, so I was not able to really hear you without turning the volume up to 40%.
