Hi - I'm Kelly (or Prudence if you like). I live in Whitefish, Montana and have a small brick and mortar shop here called Circus Angel, where I sew, draw and sell pretty clothes by independent designers and carry smaller clothing lines, handmade and a bit of vintage. I'm also a dollmaker - you can find my Waldorf-esque dolls here in my Etsy shop.
Other than sewing and having a multitude of lovely children of whom I do my best to dote on; I love to travel, cook delicious meals and decadent sweets, read lyrical novels by women authors, eat sushi and drink cocktails and go dancing with my beau, wear clothing in multiple layers and aprons on any occasion, grow flowers and sit with them in the sunshine, and spend way too much time on Pinterest. I also have a fun, though sometimes neglected blog!

A sunny day
Walked downtown and about, running errands for two hours with sleeping baby in sling. ouch. With the snow melting now it is time to get a stroller! Two months old and I'm guessing that she's up to about 15 pounds!
48 degrees out and it feels like Spring. Made russian tea cookies last night and have eaten too many today. But Dave is warming up the shrimp etouffee from last night. And I'm off to try out a new doll idea...
Vive le printemps!

Littlest red riding hood
The sweater dresses are back!
After years of not having a model in the house small enough to sport them for my etsy shop photos, (and I'll admit - never having bothered to make a proper pattern to use once my model had outgrown the previous size!) the sweater dresses are back "in production". And this is the smallest I've ever made them. I stitched up a little prototype a few weeks back for Pepper, and it looks like a doll dress - so sweet!
I now have an honest to goodness pattern and will be attempting to list a few new sweater dresses each week, size 3-6 months for the time being, so stay tuned!
Here is the newest addition to the shop (baby not included):
