Events


Join the fun, come to one of our events!

  • FabMo is open to the public twice a month for our popular In-person Shopping

  • Our wildly popular FabMo Artisans Market (formerly the FabMo Artisan Boutique) returns this October 8 – to a FABulous new location in Los Altos. 

  • Since creativity sometimes craves company, we also host a variety of Workshops and Meet-ups which are gradually returning as COVID and staffing allows

Indulge yourself and try them all!

In-person Shopping

Twice a month, FabMo offers in-person shopping at our Sunnyvale warehouse. From exquisite designer showroom samples to enticing home decor and garment weight yardage, natural and vegan leathers, and quilting cottons, there’s something for every sewist at FabMo, along with an ever-changing array of designer trims, tassels, glass and ceramic tiles, wallpaper, and carpet remnants. Throw in a selection of well-priced notions, patterns, how-to books, used sewing machines and a huge assortment of yarn, and you have just a small idea of what you can expect to uncover.

Prices for this creative bounty are incredibly attractive. And many items are actually “priceless” — yours for the taking. (Donations to defray operating costs are always appreciated.) Be sure and visit our new Priceless Treasures Room to see what you discover.

Appointments are required for the Sunnyvale Sales for times before noon each day and available for the balance of the time, but drop-ins are welcomed from noon until closing. Visit the Events Calendar for exact schedules and to book a shopping appointment. Or sign up for the FabMo Newsletter and you’ll receive the schedule every month so you can save the date(s).

And be sure and follow us on Facebook and Instagram for sneak previews of new arrivals and special offers.

Workshops and Meet-Ups

If you enjoy creating in a social setting, then check out FabMo’s popular workshops and meet-ups.

As life returns to normal, we’re gradually bringing back in-person events for makers of every kind: paper crafting, crocheting, sewing and more. Learn a new skill or just enjoy the camaraderie. All are welcome, regardless of skill level and experience. Stay tuned–and check the Events Calendar to see what’s coming up.

We’ll see you here when COVID-19 restrictions allow.

Prefer to shop online?

An additional assortment of materials is available for purchase in our Online Store (in-store pickup only) or on our eBay Store

Community Events

Throughout the year FabMo participates in community events such as Maker Faire, Earth Day, the San Mateo County Fair, and others. We often offer hands-on activities that reflect our mission by creatively reusing the materials we have rescued, and an opportunity to learn about FabMo’s work.

Check the Calendar for information on where we will be, volunteer to join us in spreading the word, or just stop by. We look forward to seeing you soon!
