Karen Seelig is a recently retired cross stitch enthusiast whose designs include patterns and puzzles.

“It is exciting to create and see the final stitched design come to life on a piece of cross stitch fabric. Sharing my designs is very gratifying.”

For more than 12 years she has created her own cross stitch designs, including yearly magnetic calendars. “The yearly calendars are printed and given to friends, family, co-workers and acquaintances during the holidays and throughout the year. Sharing my designs puts a smile on everyone’s face and their reactions are priceless.
