So I am in the market for a new sewing basket. The one I currently have a bought at an estate sale a few years back but I don't think is particularly old maybe 70's at the oldest. Just looking for ideas for a new one as my birthday is coming up so people might be looking for gift ideas it doesn't have to be true vintage it could be vintage inspired.

Here is mine - it is much beloved by the furry chaps in my life.

Please excuse the mess, I'd just bought it and was going through the contents.

Thanks! I love it smuterella I forgot about those kind that look like an end table and tier out. I am afraid that if our cat sat on it like that it would tip over she is such a porker.lol

Wow, thanks for the memory jog! I had completely forgotten but my mother had (has?) the same sewing box! Idk if she still has it though...arthritis. I was just thinking recently that I needed a proper sewing box so thanks for starting this thread.
