workbox
Portable supply holder
A workbox is a container for holding sewing supplies—needles, thread, scissors, thimbles, and the like.
Traditionally a portable box with compartments, it kept everything organized and at hand for mending or needlework.
The term sounds somewhat old-fashioned now, as sewing kit or sewing basket have become more common.
