I bought a yazzii organizer bag. So far it's the perfect take along busy bag for me. Overstock has it on sale:

to see all the bags go here: http://www.yazzii.com/ I have several made bags given to me but the plastic tore out of the seams or ripped and the seam threads broke in places. If you make one be sure and use quality clear vinyl and upholstery thread.

Here's an EASY PEASY idea. You can use potholders or placemats. Sorry no pictures!
1. Take your regular baggies (either sandwich size for the potholder, or gallon size for the placemat) and stagger then slightly so that the "zip" part lay under each other. I suggest 4-5 per "side".
2. Lay half of the baggies to the left side of the potholder/placemat and half on the right side.
3. Place a length of fabric down the middle of the baggies (also the middle of the potholder/placemat. Stitch both sides of fabric strip down all around. Trim excess baggie bottoms that stick out.
4. Fold in half and sew a button on one side with a loop on the other side to hold closed.
I have on made from a potholder and I carry it with me to all quilt classes as I have all my little essentials with me at all times.
Hope this works for you!

Here is a link that explains what maxme01 was explaining about the pot holder and baggies, while I love the look of other busy bags I have seen, I could easily make this one tonight and it would work well. Thanks for the reminder that I had saved this link to Pinterest.
