When I go to a class, I simply set the mug in the bottom of my tote bag. It works out great for me!
Me, too! I just have the coffee mug. I have two pair of scissors, snips, a stiletto, tweezers, two seam rippers, a small tube of machine oil, some markers, some #12 disposable surgical scalpels, and a 1/4" ruler for marking HSTs. I have a great Horn machine cabinet with lots of storage just down at my right side so lots of stuff is there and handy but this mug stuff is right at my fingertips on the window ledge. Beside the mug is my small pile of fabric scrap "spiders" that I use to sew off on when chain piecing.
