About Anne Cate

The sky(line's the limit. Anne Cate began in 2016 as a simple idea—when owner Anne Johnson created pillows featuring her favorite city skylines to decorate her Kent State dorm room. With a passion for sewing and the realization that every place holds a unique meaning for each person, this vision grew into a thriving business. Anne Cate is a cut & sew Made in America accessories brand and manufacturer specializing in skyline purses and versatile custom accessories. We make bags that represent the moments your customers carry close to their hearts: a beloved city, a favorite team, or a special memory. Our products are more than just purses or pillows—they tell a story unique to each person. Whether it’s remembering a hometown, celebrating travel, or turning everyday moments into meaningful style, that story comes to life with an Anne Cate product. Finally—a souvenir that isn’t ugly! Anne Cate is woman-owned (WBENC certified) and proudly made in America. Every product is designed, cut, and sewn at our manufacturing studio in Cleveland, Ohio. At Anne Cate, we also offer full custom cut-and-sew accessory production (no fees for customization). As our own manufacturer, we can bring your vision to life with a custom illustration, a new city skyline, a branded accessory, or a design of your own. Read their story
