1. SINGER 07271 Basket with Sewing Notions Kit & Removable Tray-Vintage Spools, Tan

Informative Review: “We got this as a gift for my niece who is getting married and starting her own home. She’s not a sewer but this has the basics and can get her through a crisis (or more than likely she’ll call her Mom or Grandma to help).
This has all the basics for whoever is doing the sewing along with some space to hold stuff. I use the extra space to store the buttons from new tops, so they are always in one spot. So I haven’t seen it in person, but my niece likes it!”

Another Helpful Review: “I am a first-time sewer who wanted a starter kit for sewing projects at home. I have everything I need in this kit.
The scissors are very sharp and have held up nicely since I’ve purchased this in October. The interior organizing tray has plenty of space for storing the included needles and thread, as well as much space in the bottom to keep fabric and projects I’m currently working on.”

One More Review: “I’m a beginner sewer, and I find this perfect for keeping my threads, elastics, bobbins and other small accessories organized.
I keep it at home next to my machine so that all my things are within reach. I’m not currently using the accessories that come with it (scissors, pincushion, thread etc) because I already have my own set.”

2. Sewing Basket with Tulip Floral Print Design– Sewing Kit Storage Box with Removable Tray, Built-in Pin Cushion and Interior Pocket

Informative Review: “I’ve never had a sewing basket, I’ve always repurposed other boxes. I’m not an avid sewer, just needed something for mending supplies. I love this sewing basket! It was bigger than expected, but decided not to exchange on advice of mother in-law.
It’s sturdy enough for my use, however if you were going to fill it up heavy you might need something different. The plastic tray is very sturdy, the finger grips in middle make it easy to pull out.
This has plenty of room with compartments for supplies and makes it easy to see and find everything. I put it on a shelf on my entertainment unit. It is too pretty to put in a cabinet! This would make a great gift for someone just starting out or for a mender.”

Another Helpful Review: “It is a nice size and the tray is helpful. I was a little disappointed that the bottom is not more sturdy. But with care I hope it last a long time. It is very pretty. We live in a retirement home so it is a perfect size for a small place.”
Narda Woods
One More Review: “I purchased this as a gift for a 13-year old with a passion for sewing. It is very spacious and will give her the ability to store a lot. The top tray offers a lot of room for storing thread, pins, and needles.
There is a built-in pin cushion on the inside of the lid. My only wish is that it came with some equipment, but I knew it did not ahead of time. Also those sewing packets often come with poor quality utensils.
I bought a nice scissors, wrist pincushion, colored pins, and needles. There was room to add some candy and a toy. I hope this “angel” gets a lot of joy and use out of it.”

3. Dritz St. Jane Sewing Basket, Large Oval (metal handle)
Top-rated: 1,850 ratings

Informative Review: “I’m not a professional seamstress by any stretch. I just wanted a cute (but not corny) sewing container in which to keep all my stuff. This “basket” is just about perfect.
It’s sturdy, has a convenient removable clear tray and it’s deep enough to hold my super cute pin cushion that I wasn’t willing to part with. Yes, the container has a pin cushion located on the top, and I use that one for my needles.
The pockets on the top are good for holding my needle packages and a couple of those travel sewing kits I took home from a hotel stay. Surprisingly, there’s not much to choose from out there. Most come with a bunch of cheap sewing stuff you don’t really need.
This one comes empty and ready to fill with your collection of good sewing tools and notions.”

Another Helpful Review: “I was using the same sewing box I had when an 8th grader in Home Economics.
When I saw this one, I fell in love with it. Besides the fact that it holds all of my sewing notions with room to spare, it is pretty. I have it setting out as a decoration, and it makes me smile!”

One More Review: “I have been sewing for 45 years and this is my first sewing basket. I like the way it looks and it has helped organize some of the things I need especially when I need to take a few items with me to do a sewing project away from home.”

Informative Review: “I really was surprised at how well built and pretty this was… I had read some negative reviews bout this basket..mine was perfect ..color of basket not faded it was bright vibrant !! …perfect for me all I need is just to hem or quick stitch repair PERFECT.. under the sturdy tray I put 42 regular size spools of thread held them all and these spools are regular size bigger spools!
This is a perfect sewing basket… If you don’t like tiny pins buy more I replaced sissors for smaller size …make this darling thing what you want it to be I am so happy with my new sewing kit. If you do a lot ..a lot of sewing maybe you need a larger basket …don’t not purchase because of a few comments against what comes in basket…remember make it what you want it to be just add some things you like …under tray lots of room ok”

Another Helpful Review: “
I bought the kit because I’ve collected quite a bit of miscellaneous sewing stuff over the last year and was tired of keeping them all in tins and buckets around my home.
I wanted something that I could look at and see “Yep, this is definitely for sewing stuff, this is not cookies, dear husband, so don’t dig in here looking for them.”
This kit has done just that.
The included things were a great bonus, as I needed a new little tomato for my needles and you can never, ever have enough pairs of fabric scissors.”
Mandy Oviatt
One More Review: “I purchased this for myself and love it. it’s the perfect size and has enough room for my sewing stuff that I need. the scissors are great quality too.
The little tomato is probably the only thing I would “complain” about. I wish it was just a little bit bigger. but it works great.
I got some long needles and I had to turn them sideways to not stick out. The little clip in the front is magnetic. The quality of the material on the outside and inside is greatly done and soft.”

5. Large Sewing Basket with Accessories Sewing Kit Storage and Organizer with Complete Sewing Tools
Top-rated: 636 ratings

Informative Review: “I purchased and returned the medium size container in pink polka dots and got the large because my sheers and curved fashion rulers would not fit.
This one actually comes with more stuff and better quality stuff than the small, and it fits my supplies except for my 18 inch fashion ruler perfect.
I am starting my sewing class, well technically it already started and I was told to buy a container.
I will be bedazzling it a bit with Swarovski crystals because that’s just who I am and with this beautiful container I already feel like a pro… update I already did a lil design on it so I posted pics of how it looks”

Another Helpful Review: “This was a Christmas gift for my barely 7 year old granddaughter. After an hour plus ride home on Christmas night she instead on staying up and taking care of setting up the basket.
By 8am the needle and thread were flying on a project. It is cute but not little girlish at all. Suitable for any age. I am thinking of buying one for by daughter who is moving into an apartment soon!”

6. Luxja High Capacity Sewing Accessories Organizer (Bag ONLY), Sewing Supplies Organizer with Shoulder Strap (Patent Design), Polka Dots
Top-rated: 526 ratings

Informative Review: “For some reason it was very difficult to find a container to use as a portable sewing case online.
I wanted to build my own custom kit for my daughter-in-law for a gift. Of course, after spending a couple of months looking and finally buying this on Amazon, I found the holy grial of hobby containers at Hobby Lobby for much less money. By then I had already bought this, and since I was reasonbly happy with it, I kept it.
It does not feel super sturdy, but it should hold up to most handling unless you are planning to use it in a rough-and-tumble way. It feels like a cheap-ish lunch box.
The size is very good, and I got several small clear plastic containers to stack inside it for sewing necessities. (Those were also harder to find online for a decent price, and I did find those in time at Hobby Lobby and paid much less than Amazon was wanting for them.)
I was surprised at how hard it was to find a neutral bag, or at least a pretty one. Most of them had unattractive, crazy designs and colors that I didn’t want to give as a gift! This one was the best of what I saw in that regard too. (Again, Hobby Lobby had a wall full of pretty bags for less money than I paid for this one. I’m not sure why Amazon’s stock is so limited and high-priced for these items.)
Bottom line, if I had to buy online, this fit my needs, and I was reasonably happy with it and happy to give it as a gift.”

Another Helpful Review: “I love this sewing bag! It has 3 sections inside, plus many zippered pockets. I take a lot of sewing classes, and this bag holds everything I need!
I keep this bag with all of my supplies close to me at home while sewing, and it is convenient to take to classes. I highly recommend it!”
Peg Leg
One More Review: “I replaced a plastic tub with this bag. The bag has more usable space than my older sewing bin. Lots of pockets and holding straps.
There are places for needles, bobbins, machine accessories, seam rippers and scalpel blades and scissors. The only shortcoming is not having a dedicated space for the 40 spools of thread that I moved into it.
Had to use baggies and put them into one of the central holding compartments.”
