anne b designs

I’m a self-taught designer that grew up creating new things out of frustration of poor design and poor functionality. I started out making custom bags for friends when I was in college and have transformed anne b designs into retail products that keep the same spirit of customization for each customer. anne b strives to provide you simple and practical designs, quality materials, and print combinations that WILL make a statement. All products are made in the USA and anne b employs local refugees here in Salt Lake City. I value hard work and feel that everyone deserves equal opportunities to utilize their skills. I volunteered in Uganda, Africa last summer and taught women and children how to sew and market their business. That experience inspired me to launch a funding campaign to develop a sewing school here in Salt Lake City, Utah. We reached our goal and things are happening! Workshops are taking place, I’ve moved my studio out of my basement room to a quaint studio, a venue for the school is in progress, I have 6 shiny machines for students, anne b has received international attention by customers and publishers, and I couldn’t be happier.
