We are a web and craft show-based business. We do not have a physical location. Most days, I am busy filling orders from my home studio.

Welcome to Grandma Bessie's, home of Grandma Bessie's Custom Threadz
We have been in business since 1999, when I decided to leave corporate America. I dedicated this business to my paternal grandmother.
She loved quilting and sewing. She also taught me the value of hard work.
Although I own this business, a lot of the work is a family effort, with my sister sewing and family helping with shipping and embroidery.
Our primary business is embroidery and personalization.. However, we also do sublimation and digitally printed items.
We work from two locations, my studio in Ossian, Indiana, and my sister's studio in Kankakee, Illinois. We try our best to ship on a timely basis...
Our mission is to provide our customers with the best quality personalized items.
Our primary focus on items has been on kitchen items. But in the past few years, we have moved toward total home decor. In 2025, we will add personalizable pillows. We will be producing all our environmentally friendly pillow covers in the USA.

Owner
I started Grandma Bessie's after working for corporate America for 18 years. My first love was simple graphic print. In 2003, I bought my first embroidery machine. I now own 4, and my sister owns 2.
For many years, I only did shows. Changes in the business environment led to our decision to build a website.
