I use one of those hanging cosmetic bags. Mine is about 2' long and has zipper compartments with plastic fronts. I can put the scissors, thread, bobbins, small rulers, pins, rotary cutters, .... I have had it about 16 years and it is still going strong. I keep it loaded so I can grab and go. I recently bought a folding ruler and folding cutting mat so I can use one of my totes.

My Longaberger sewing basket
Here are a few pictures of my very messy sewing basket. This is the small picnic basket - my other one is not easy to get to right now. (The delay was getting the pictures from my phone to computer. I was having a dickens of a time, then looked it up on Google. Not sure why I didn't do that days ago.)
Last time I took it with us on a trip, the bell boy wanted to put it on the cart with the luggage so I wouldn't have to carry it. And my DH told him if anything happened to my sewing basket I would become homicidal. So he didn't ask twice. :-)

January is organization month; so you'll see a number of stores with sales on totes and tubs. I see JoAnn's has a special right now. You may find something there. http://www.joann.com/home-decor-and-...161231E2#sz=90

I use a small rolling suitcase with swivel wheels. It hold my Featherweight, fabrics, and my threads/tools/accessories in snap lock containers. I can add my purse or a tote on top if necessary. Best way for me to get around after double knee replacements. 1 trip to and from the car, easy to get up the stairs.

Something that has helped me immensely, is a cheat sheet--I list everything that I could possibly need for my class and mark them off as they get packed. It comes in handy on the other end too, because I can check to be sure that I have everything that I brought with me.
