About Fabric-a-brac Auckland

The Auckland Fabric-a-brac is one of the original Fabric-a-brac events in New Zealand, second only to Wellington.

Fabric-a-brac is a fun fabric and sewing supplies market where you can shop for vintage and modern sewing and upholstery fabric, patterns, haberdashery and more. It brings the sewing community together to share stashes, stories and delight in our mutual love of textiles.

Fabric-a-brac is volunteer-run, and is a fundraiser for hospice – in Auckland this is Mercy Hospice. All profits from this event are donated to their work.

Free entry, gold coin koha to Mercy Hospice appreciated.

Apply for a stall

The event welcomes stallholders, with fabric or haberdashery for sale. You can be a private individual, or representing a business. The market is about things to make things, related to textiles. No finished items you have made yourself – but items for up cycling or sewing/textile tools are wonderful!
