Martha Pullen is a legendary teacher in the sewing world. Her devoted students became loyal customers because she made them believe they could do anything - even the most intricate and delicate heirloom sewing technique.
Martha started Sew Beautiful, a bi-monthly magazine that brought new awareness of top designers to the sewing market. In print for more than 30 years, this magazine was a staple in the homes of sewists who loved to make beautiful garments. Many designers got their start in the pages of Sew Beautiful and launched successful design businesses.
Her television show, Martha’s Sewing Room, was well received by the PBS audience, and it aired in all 50 states and Canada for 17 years. It was even translated into Japanese, making Martha Pullen a household name in sewing internationally.
In 2014, she wrote her business book, G.R.A.C.E, Keys to Entrepreneurship. She's as passionate about sharing her business knowledge and expertise as she ever was about teaching her heirloom sewing techniques.
Martha Pullen has received many honors and accolades throughout her life. And most recently, the Alabama Department of History has mounted an exhibit devoted to Martha Pullen’s lifetime of work. The Alabama Museum of Archives and History is located in the Capital and the Martha Pullen Exhibition will be open to the public sometime in 2022. When asked what’s next for her, Martha indicated there is a whole new chapter coming. She said, “It’s going to be a whole new Martha Campbell Pullen, and I think people will be surprised. I love learning almost as much as I love teaching, and it feels like technology has finally caught up with my desire to teach everybody in the world."
"I'm in love with Sulky Thread, I've always used it. It has the most beautiful sheen to it." ~ Martha Pullen
