My hand-sewing goes into a small plastic shoebox labeled CAMPING and it has it's own needles and pins, small scissors, 6"x6" cutting mat, the smallest rotary cutter, couple neutral threads, pencil, 6" ruler, etc. so I'm not borrowing from my regular machines' notion boxes. It's always ready to put into the RV.
Applique, GM Flower Garden, embroidery for quilt squares, and anything hand-pieced esp. after I saw that Jinny Beyer does ALL her quilts by hand...well, then, so can I !!!
In a few years, I've made one quilt top; working on another and will always be working on that GM flower garden! Hahaha I also bring crosswords, sudukos, crochet, etc. and a magazine or two. You can't sight-see or hike or fish all the time...
