Basic Sewing Kit

So today I am going to talk about the basic sewing kit I keep on my desk, for quick projects. Firstly I bought this sewing kit when I was in Aldi for £2.99, so it may not be the best quality. However I do have a larger sewing box I keep my more specific items, sewing patterns and extensive collection of cottons in.



Anyway lets talk about the design, this sewing box is a cute tin with a light green, floral,  vintage pattern on and more importantly inside is:

Scissors

Pins

A pin cushion (I prefer my larger pear pin cushion though)

Needles

A thimble

Tape measure 

Cotton

A rotary tool
Stitch unpicker 

Different types of thread

So that's what's in my miniature kit, what handy things do you like to keep in yours?
