    My DH is a woodworker and he made me a couple of tool caddies for my quilting tables. The first one I keep on my ironing station and the second one I keep beside my sewing machine.

    Sorry, working on getting the pictures in, but thus far it won't let me, even when downsizing the pictures to smaller than they need to be.

    I just keep getting a message of : Upload of file failed

    Anyways, I really like my tool boxes/caddies!

    I have 3 of these caddies that hang on the table by Tonic. I love them. They're also easy to remove and take with me to classes.

    Thanks for that link @cashs_mom Patrice! I love my cutting table but I keep it cluttered up with tools and rulers. I may have to order one of these. What configuration do you use?

    @quiltingcotton I hope you can get your pics uploaded. I’d like to see your solution also.

    My favorite tool was a gift. My fishing buddy's mom made it for me using fishing fabric. I could not find a pattern in Google, but it is a lined pouch/pocket for my scissors with a sand bag attached with a strip. It rests over the door of my sewing machine cabinet, with the bean bag to the back to hold it in place.

    I have the large central part and some of the smaller ones. I bought one at an estate sale and it had 2 smaller parts and one on eBay that was just the middle part and then one complete set from an online source. I can't really remember where it was. It really does help keep my cutting table clear and yet have my tools within reach.
