The Dressmakers' Flea Market: A Unique Gathering for Sewing Enthusiasts

The Dressmakers' Flea Market and Creative Hobbies of La Mothe-Saint-Héray is an original and sought-after event that brings together, over a June weekend, all enthusiasts of sewing, knitting, embroidery and creative hobbies. Exhibitors offer fabrics, remnants, haberdashery, patterns, buttons, ribbons, wool, beads, second-hand sewing machines and handmade creations.

A Format That Appeals to Creatives From Across the Region

The dressmakers' flea market stands apart from regular garage sales through its specialisation. Here, no general bric-a-brac: each stand is dedicated to the world of sewing and creative arts. Visitors find supplies at reduced prices, vintage haberdashery items, rare or vintage fabrics, and original handmade creations.
