ALL ABOUT SULKY

Beginning with their retail store in Florida, Fred and Joyce Drexler had a goal to educate the home sewist by providing exciting seminars and high-quality products. Thirty-five years later, Sulky continues to innovate and inspire its customers to create something beautiful every day (and have fun doing it!). Found at fine retailers and sulky.com, Sulky products are the industry standard for sewing and crafting enthusiasts. 

“I am proud of everyone in the Sulky organization for their unwavering and ongoing commitment to produce and deliver only the highest quality products, education and customer service.” – Fred Drexler 

Sulky prides itself on its stellar customer support, making sure everyone can create with confidence. With customer service representatives available to answer questions; a state-of-the-art education platform for virtual classes and events; interactive online resources; and active social media platforms, Sulky can communicate with customers throughout their creative process.

With education at the forefront of the business, Sulky also offers in-person classes and events for guilds and organizations. We come to YOU to teach techniques, hone your skills and play with fabrics and threads. We also offer virtual guild events, so you can join with your members from the comfort of your own home if travel isn’t recommended, likely or convenient.

Once you try a Sulky thread or stabilizer, you’ll understand, feel and see what makes Sulky products stand out from the rest. If you start with the best ingredients, the finished result can’t help but be fantastic!

Join us as we party it up this June and beyond. Cheers to many, many more Sulky anniversaries!

    Sounds amazing – just like all Sulky products, which I love using to create beautiful things for my family and friends!

    I remember the early days. I went to an intro at machine store in sarasota, when Peter owned it. It was never the same , when he retired.
