I’m addicted to plastic containers of any size����. For my hand work I have a larger containers with a handle and snap closures - inside I keep smaller containers (yes, plastic!!) for threads, pins and (right now) hexagon fabric pieces. Scissors.also have a container along with marking tools. I like this way for me much better than various types of bags, although sometimes I do out a few things into a bag once in awhile. I think a hand sewer needs to find what,works for them and what they like and use it.
