Puces des couturières de Chartres-de-Bretagne

The paradise for sewers and creatives

The Puces des couturières de Chartres-de-Bretagne are held every autumn at the Halle de la Conterie. This specialized event brings together dozens of exhibitors—seamstresses, quilters, embroiderers, and creative hobby enthusiasts—who offer fabrics by the meter, remnants, haberdashery, buttons, ribbons, trims, wool, vintage patterns, used sewing machines, overlockers, sewing books, and various creative materials. It's the perfect opportunity to stock up on supplies at affordable prices or to find rare items not available in stores.

The Halle de la Conterie, a showcase for creative passions

The Halle de la Conterie, a large, bright indoor space, is ideally suited for this type of specialized fair.

Fabrics, wool, and inspiration
