I sew mostly away from home. I use those small zipper plastic bags to hold my small, seldom-used tools. That way they are all together and don't get lost or misplaced, as well as being easily transported. I also have one for my yo-yo makers, so if I am working on yo-yos, I just grab the plastic pouch and I have the yo-yo maker and the instructions. They never get lost or misplaced.
