Needlework carrier Keep your embroidery in an old purse, but make sure it’s clean first. Store needles, cotton or wool, scissors and other supplies in its various compartments.
Clothes pin holder Slip the bag’s handle over the line to keep your pins handy, or attach the purse to the line with a clothes pin.
Tool carrier Keep a purse filled with emergency tools in the boot of your car; choose a bag which is light and easy to carry, and wrap the tools in fabric to stop them rattling.
