General Info

Our company began as The Vacuum Shop, a small vacuum cleaner shop in Muskogee, OK. The store consisted of approximately 250 square feet and was established by Jim and Sharon Stewart in 1981. Lewis and Becky Godby purchased the shop in 1985, which consisted of approximately $5,000 in inventory and no employees. In June of 1986, Godby leased a new custom-built building with 950 square feet and added sewing machines. The stores name changed to "Godby's Sew-N-Vac Shoppe and continued to expand. In 1988, Godby purchased "The Sewing Machine Store" in the Farm Shopping Center in Tulsa, OK and expanded to include multiple machine brands. B-Sew Inn Sewing and Software Center is one of the industries leaders and owner Mary Hess credits this success to passionate customers, dedicated team members, trustworthy suppliers and the faithful blessings of God. This combination has allowed their team of Sewing Consultants to creatively care about each customer and this Christian-based company to be poised to grow and meet the challenges of the future. The Sewing and Quilting Industry continues to expand in many areas, including the most revolutionary growth in technology and software. Each challenge will be viewed as an opportunity, says Mary Hess. Sewing is not only a stress relieving opportunity, but continues to be an inspiring hobby to many consumers. Creativity can be endless as technology delivers options as never seen before in the sewing, quilting and craft world. Each day I have the privilege to work side-by-side with over 50 team members and we are committed to honesty, integrity and superior service to our customers.
