Puces des couturières de Tremblay-les-Villages

The Puces des couturières of Tremblay-les-Villages

Tremblay-les-Villages, a rural commune in Eure-et-Loir, is the setting for an original and highly appreciated annual event in the creative hobbies community: the Puces des couturières. Organized every year in April at the town's village hall, this specialized market brings together seamstresses, embroiderers, knitters, and creative hobby enthusiasts around a second-hand market entirely dedicated to their passion.

A Market Entirely Dedicated to Creative Hobbies

Unlike general car boot sales, the Puces des couturières of Tremblay-les-Villages have a strong identity and an assumed specialization. Exhibitors mainly offer sewing, embroidery, and knitting materials: fabrics by the meter or in remnants, balls of wool and cotton, embroidery threads, ribbons, lace, buttons, and various haberdashery. You will also find specialized patterns and magazines, pattern books, embroidery kits, creative hobby materials (scrapbooking, box making, fabric painting…), and second-hand sewing machines or accessories.

A Friendly and Feminine Atmosphere

The event creates a warm and supportive atmosphere, typical of gatherings of handicraft enthusiasts. Sellers are often buyers too, and the exchange of advice, techniques, and good addresses are an integral part of the day. For beginners as well as experienced seamstresses, it's an opportunity to find materials at low prices, discover fabrics that are hard to find elsewhere, and share their passion with people who have the same interests.

Prices and Practical Organization

The event takes place in the village hall of Tremblay-les-Villages, from 10 am to 4 pm or 5 pm. Tables are offered at 5 euros, making the spot very accessible for individuals who wish to clear out their fabric and material stocks. Display grids are available for an additional 2 euros. Entry is free for visitors. Reservations can be made with the organizer at 06 73 42 92 60.
