Between needles and culture in Coimbra

Sunday, 19 August 2012 00:00

Casa da Esquina, a sewing café, opened recently in Coimbra. It is believed to be the first café in the country with four sewing machines, a cutting and sewing table and a library of templates (5 euros/ hour with a right to a cafe). Two or three times a year there is a fair with second-hand clothes, exhibitions, workshops, gatherings, a exchange market for children and, more recently, the studio of Radio kids Fantastic.
