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.
