Pattern Ideas?

I’m looking for a couple of craft/sewing ideas for a group of ladies to do in a couple of hours.  Previous things we’ve done are making pillow cases, little zippered bags, quilted postcards, placemat purses, and little pincushions on a golf tee that inserts into a spool of thread.  Here are a few photos from previous “craft days”…

I’ve had a request to repeat the placemat purses, and I figure there are a few people who will want a refresher on the pillowcase pattern.  I found a new little zippered bag pattern with some beading (optional) on it that would fit the little reading glasses.  We will do postcards again, with new, better techniques.

Now I’m looking for a pattern for a reusable market bag.  There are a zillion patterns out there.  Is there one you tried that you liked (and the pattern is free and online)?  Not that I’m asking for much here…

but as long as I’m asking, is there another easy project that comes to your mind that would be fun to throw into the mix?

Help!!!
