Erica Michaels Designs is the creative work of Linda Stolz, a lifelong stitcher with a passion for needlework. Inspired by her family's love of sewing, she explored various techniques before falling in love with counted cross-stitch in college. After working in interior design and other fields, she began designing her own patterns in 2000 with encouragement from The Silver Needle. Named after a variation of her son's name, Erica Michaels Designs offers unique cross-stitch patterns that inspire creativity. Now based in Clarksville, Tennessee, Linda continues to stitch, design, and share her love of needlework with the stitching community.
