Martha Stewart Baby, Special Issue 2000
A terry-cloth kit with baby's scissors, nail clippers, comb, and thermometer is a caretaker's lifesaver. The washable kit rolls up and fits neatly into small spaces, like the pocket of a diaper bag.
Fold a washcloth over, leaving a 1 1/2-inch edge on one side. (Wash new cloths before sewing to avoid future shrinkage.) To plot out the width of each channel, lay out the kit items on the folded washcloth. Sew up each channel to form compartments. Tuck the ends of two 8-inch-long ribbons into the seam before sewing up the last edge, so you can tie the kit once it is rolled up.

I did this for my crafting tools I take to a scrapbooking parties. This is can be used many different ways.
I did something similar to this for my knitting needles--it was great!
I think this could be adapted to adult personal care items when traveling.
This is a great idea if you have more than one child to take care of, it saves a lot of time because you don't have the need to search for these items, they're just there for you when you need them.
