I use a napkin & utensil holder meant for picnic use. It has a handle with the large (napkin) side I use for my sewing machine book and a few small rulers on one side and three smaller sections on the other side that I use for my seam ripper, snips, rotary cutter, six inch ruler, as well as a few pens, pencils, etc. It is small enough that it fits nicely on my sewing table behind my machine and is easy to pick up if I need the tools elsewhere. It helps my sewing table stay organized!
