Hand sewing kit
#1
I was thinking about making a roll-up thingy to hold thread, scissors, needles.... kind of like a makeup kit. But, I am wondering how functional it would be, or if it would just wind up a cool little doodad stuffed in my closet cause it didn't work they way I expected. What do you use to told your hand sewing stuff on the go?

I saw one at the Paducah Quilt show by the YoYos of Paducah. I couldn't find a way to contact them to buy one so I research and found a pattern on line. I made one and love it. I keep it on the table next to me where I hand quilt. Nice to have the prethreaded needles.

I think the form would depend on where you hand sew and what you sew. I hand sew my repairs on blouses, etc. in the car on trips - actually add lace, put on buttons on the blouses I plan on wearing - that way
I have to do the mending, then that also dictates the size and convenience of the sewing kit. Of course my DH is driving. I update a lot T-shirts this way. I'm thinking a kit that slipped over my window visor would really be a godsend.
