Make cushion covers? Big beanbags?

How about making door stops as well as the bean bags & cushion covers? I know they don't use much fabric, but you could get some sort of cottage industry going with the quantity of fabric you've got and flog them? Some of the ones I've seen on Etsy and similar sites are about £25 each!! I made some myself and filled them with cheapo lentils from the Indian shop. Give them to family & friends and they're very much appreciated!
