Bringing fabric from the people to the people

Heads up Auckland – Fabric-a-brac is back this Saturday, promising vintage and modern fabrics, patterns, upholstery, haberdashery, sewing accessories, nice people, great coffee and sweet treats!

Fabric-A-Brac is all about connecting the treasure troves of fabric, buttons and other sewing notions in communities with craft and sewing enthusiasts.

Proceeds from the day go to Hospice New Zealand and, since its beginnings in 2009, the event has raised over $10,000 for Hospice in New Zealand.

Last year’s Fabric-a-brac debut in Auckland featured more than forty stallholders. This year’s event also promises to delight crafters and stitchers in the city of sails, with plenty of goodies on offer – and admission is free!

When: 9am–12.30pm, Saturday 9 March
Where: Freemans Bay Community Hall, 52 Hepburn Street, Freemans Bay
