hmm, you could make candy like the shape of a tootsie roll by cutting a rectangular piece of felt, sewing the edges together to create a tube, then just pinching and sewing the end edges closed.
suckers wouldnt be too hard either, just sew two pices of a cirlce together, maybe stuff a wee bit, leave a little opening for a 'stick'. For the stick you could use popsicle sticks, (you can machine sew straight over them) or make two long skinny rectangular pices sewn together with a rounded off edge and insert that into the seam opening, then sew closed.
hope that helps ( or makes sense!)
