A celebration of a decade

Well, that went quickly.

This year is TEN YEARS since that very first Fabric-a-brac in Brooklyn School hall in Wellington. What a decade it’s been. We’ve loved meeting you all and sharing our love of textiles and fabric.

We have some special events coming up this year – and the first is the tenth year of the Wellington Fabric-a-brac.

Join us on 22 June at St Anne’s Hall, Newtown in Wellington for a trip down memory lane and lots of fantastic material and sewing accessories. Find out more or apply for a stall

The Palmerston North event today was our last for the year. Thank you to the amazing fabric and sewing community in New Zealand (and Australia).

We love you guys! See you next year!

Palmerston North’s fabric stash is piling up…

Last chance!

4 November sees the last Fabric-a-brac of the year, this time in Palmerston North. (note that the local Guardian paper said it was THIS weekend (14 October) which is incorrect.

We have stallholders from businesses, charities and of course the lovely stallholders who need to move their stash. Special mention of the stallholders travelling down with her stash from Whakatane just for this event!

The Hospice table will be groaning with goodies and we’ll have tea, coffee and sweet treats, all to raise money for Arohanui Hospice. Can’t wait to see you there!

If you have any questions email us.
