I just received my little Travel Sewing Kit this afternoon and am thrilled. It's exactly what I have been looking for. The blue case folds and snaps close and is very similar in size, durability, and functionality to a powder compact. It's already found a home in my laptop bag.

Includes:
-Cute Blue Case
-Scissors
-Tweezers
-3 Straight Pins (on a cute little pin cushion)
-3 Needles
-Safety Pin
-Needle Threader
-2 Snaps
-2 Buttons (small, white/clear)
-Thread (White, Off-White, Red, Yellow, Dark Blue, Black)

1.0 out of 5 stars NOT FISKARS BRAND!, December 9, 2007

The sewing kit I received looks exactly like the one in the picture, but it is NOT Fiskars brand, which is why I bought it in the first place. I saw it and thought that Fiskars would make a good travel sewing kit. This is a cheap, made in Taiwan sewing kit by some company called Dura Sharp. The scissors (what Fiskars are world-famous for) will not even cut thread! This is a really cheap kit that belongs in a 99¢ store. I would NOT recommend this to anyone!

This product was what I expected. The case is stronger than I expected. It's not cheap plastic. Instead it's very sturdy and would the latch seems like it will last forever.
