Cleopatra's needles were two obelisks, but they did not have much to do with Cleopatra herself. According to the Egyptian Antiquities Authority, they were created in the quarries at Aswan then displayed in front of the temple at Heliopolis. When the Ptolemies took over Egypt, the obelisks were moved to Alexandria. When Cleopatra built the temple to Julius Caesar, she had them moved and set up in front of his temple. As to who designed them, we simply don't know.
