I actually have 2 boxes. The small metal one is for moving around the house, and has the supplies I need for sewing on binding or hand applique - scissors, needles, Thread Heaven, thimble, a couple of binding clips, and different colors of Bottom Line on bobbins. These items live in this box permanently. I think I got the box at Walgreens for a dollar.

When I want to take a project with me that goes out of the house, I stick the little box inside this plastic box, which was originally sold on the school supply aisle as a pencil case. I paid 50 cents for it. The little box fits perfectly, and I can fit my cheater glasses, glue, and several hand applique blocks in it perfectly.

For the times when I have larger blocks I'm working on, I use a 12" x 12" x 1" scrapbooking tote that I bought on clearance.
