Cicada Studio

Many of you may be familiar with Michelle of Cicada Studio. I found Cicada Studio through Etsy and have been in love with her work ever since. She just launched her textile collection "What's Buzzin, Cousin." In my opinion Michelle is definitely IT in textile design. Her blog happens to be one of my faves as well.
A little more info on Michelle, which I happened to steal ( I mean borrow) from her etsy profile.
"Cicada Studio is my personal project. In 2004, new people, ideas, and circumstances brought to the surface a desire for a creative outlet that encompassed many of my talents. With over 12 years experience in the studios of New York‘s men’s garment industry, I am finally utilizing my design, graphics, merchandising, and business skills in rejuvenated creativity; in contrast to my profession, one that is driven by me alone. Coupling my daily work with my daily dreams, I try to bring an exciting and fresh perspective to the markets that interest me."

    Vanessa you know that I have the fabric disease and here you are dangling this gorgeous fabric in front of me. I have to go now and spend the rest of my day trying to figure out how to accumulate the entire collection.

    I am a big fan of her, too...and it doesn't hurt that she's such a nice person. I especially love all her bird designs.
