KAREN STEINBERG received her Bachelor’s degree in Design from the State University of New York, College at Buffalo. She managed her own highly successful textile design studio for nineteen years, creating prints for fabric, for both the apparel and home furnishings industries. When the textile industry moved most of its design operations overseas, she shifted over to interior design, assisting many of her clients with everything from  color consulting, drapery design and furniture selection, to kitchen and bath remodels. Karen worked for Expo Design Center as a whole house designer for five years. She currently operates her own independent interior decorating firm called KLSDesign. Karen has taught weaving, textile printing and painting to high school students at Belvoir Terrace Fine Arts School for Girls in Lenox, Mass; a Business Practice workshop to artists at the California Mart in Los Angeles and gave many design seminars at Expo Design Center on current trends and on product information. Painting borders around verses started when a friend first saw Karen’s textile design portfolio and wanted her to create a design using similar beautiful floral patterns around a special poem.
