Coastal Sewing Machines has been around for roughly 20 years, originally started in 1993 by Peter and Debbie Alvord. They moved the shop between various locations on the Connecticut coast line. Some may remember Coastal Sewing Machines in towns such as Niantic, Madison and Westbrook before settling down in our current location in the town of Old Saybrook. Roughly ten years ago the business was moved to this location on N. Main Street across from the Monkey Farm, and has been a great stopping point for sewing and quilting enthusiasts in the area.
In June 2011, it was purchased by Jeff and Liz Erekson, a young couple new to the Connecticut area. They have brought excitement and new ideas to the already successful shop. The store has been run with the help of Michele Holt, a loyal and trusted employee of the business. Collectively our team is here to help our customers get the answers they need and the service they deserve.
