I had an ugly mustard color plastic sewing box for years until I bought my home. Now I have no sewing box, just one room full of fabric, and one room for sewing machines, ironing board, cutting table, etc.

I have a sewing 'box' (bag) for each type of craft I am doing. Example: Paperpiecing, applique, crocheting, beading, EPP, etc. My goal is to be able to pick up my 'sewing box' and be able to travel with it. All I need now is a Bewitched nose to put everything in reasonable order.

my traditional-style sewing box is filled with my smocking stuff. the rest of my stuff is in plastic boxes-like the ones you use to store scrapbooking paper. I have some for precuts, one for ribbons, another for smaller templates.

I retired my sewing basket when I stopped mending clothes and started making quilts. Now most of my small sewing things are kept in Whitman Sampler tins. Buttons, machine needles, hand needles, perle cotton, laces, beads, fancy threads, rotary cutter blades, marking pencils, and other 'smalls' all live in their own tin in one of the 'legs' of my work table. A second leg is in process. The fun part is getting rid of the chocolate whenever Whitman comes out with a new Sampler tin.
