Welcome to Abi Designs™
I'm Yessica Kathleen Velez — a lifelong maker with a deep love for color, design, and meaningful creativity. Since childhood, I've been crafting from calligraphy and crochet to ceramics and sewing.
After a 20+ year career leading, mentoring and managing global supply chain technology projects, I've returned to my roots of creating art that uplifts and inspires.
Through Abi Designs™, I combine my passion for handmade beauty with my heart for encouraging others. We offer handmade crochet purses, accessories, and gifts designed to inspire and uplift.
Each piece is crafted with care, blending beauty, hope, and meaning to create a unique experience. From inspirational quotes on apparel and mugs to one-of-a-kind crochet bags, Abi Design brings love and intention into every creation. Perfect for thoughtful gifting or treating yourself to something special.

Handmade Crochet Purses and Pouches
Timeless. Textured. Made with heart.
Each of my crochet purses and pouches is lovingly handmade, combining soft textures, thoughtful details, and a touch of inspiration. From compact pouches to full-size statement bags, every piece is crafted to bring beauty, purpose, and personality to your everyday life.
Whether you're drawn to bold colors, earthy tones, or elegant accents, these accessories are designed to reflect your unique style while offering a meaningful, handmade touch. No two are exactly alike — just like the people who carry them.

Crafted with love, purpose, and your choice of uplifting details, these matching sets are more than just accessories — they're keepsakes for creating memories, inspiring confidence, and honoring the joy of togetherness. Whether you're twinning on a casual day out or gifting a cherished moment, the Mommy and Me collection brings warmth, style, and meaning to every step you take together.
