I use a high‑quality Japanese microfiber fabric with a smooth, suede‑like touch, rich color, and an animal‑friendly composition.

Crafted by a long‑established Japanese manufacturer known for pioneering high-quality microfiber fabrics, this material offers remarkable quality—so much so that it is often used in luxury interiors and fine home furnishings.

I pair it with thoughtfully selected cotton fabrics, choosing each one for its gentle texture and lasting comfort.

This bag is crafted from high‑quality suede‑texture microfiber and made entirely by hand.

You can choose from over 30 colors, and custom sizing is available.

Modest Splurge began when I was gifted an embroidery machine from a dear friend’s family. I wanted to embroider something close to my heart—my dogs. The idea of stitching their portraits onto my favorite fabric and turning them into cute, practical items I could carry every day filled me with excitement.

Learning how to use the machine was a journey full of trial and error, but when I finally made my first crossbody phone bag, it was everything I hoped for—and more. It became a little treasure that felt uniquely mine. I was so moved that I started making embroidered gifts for my family and friends, most of whom are pet parents. Their joy inspired me to share this happiness with other pet owners who cherish their furry companions.

Now, I create each piece by hand from my home in North Carolina, balancing this work with my full-time job. It may take a little time, but every stitch is made with care and love. I hope each bag brings a bit of warmth and delight to those who carry it—just as it did for me.
