The rack includes a tray attached to the first base for rotation with respect to the first base. The tray has at least one suture-holding section with resilient clips and bosses to retain a surgical sutures in the suture-holding section. The tray has a pin which defines a rotatable axis and the first base has a connector that engages the pin for releasably connecting the tray to the first base.

The first base can be attached to up to four adjacent bases.
