Hi! Thanks for this opportunity! I am a mom of a toddler with another baby on the way. I really appreciate the crafting with kids posts–in particular the “spin drum” instructions. I love reusing everyday items in crafts in general and I think it’s a great way to teach kids about the reuse and recycle concept. Crafting was a huge part of my childhood and I’m so grateful for ideas for crafting with my own kids! xox
[Reply]
I’m fairly new to your blog and to the crafting world in general, so I really appreciate your posts on how to do simple sewing and craft techniques. I think my favorite was on how to gather fabric. Thanks for helping a girl out!
[Reply]
How could I choose a favorite!? I love fabric Fridays and I love all of the superlative posts. So creative!!!
[Reply]
I love all the crafting ideas that I can use with my kids. Plus you pick the best fabric on Fridays that always can lend some inspiration.
[Reply]
Wow! What a great giveaway. I don’t have a particularly favorite moment but when I do a search for “prudent baby” I have tons of your articles saved to reference- everything from your crib sheet tutorials to 2-minute french toast in a cup. It was awesome finding your blog while I was pregnant last year with my first child. The advice has been invaluable!
[Reply]
I love your tutorials! The snap top is my favorite, but I’ve made a few ohers.
[Reply]
I have been in love with this website since my first baby was born. He loves the recipes; I think his favorite is the French toast in a cup. But now I have a girl and the pillow case dress and the snappy toddler dress are my favorites for her. I recently found the fold-over clutch and have made many for Christmas gifts. Thank you for all of the inspiration. Keep it up.
[Reply]
Love the sewing tutorials – the pillow case dress and fold-over clutch are big hits around here!
[Reply]
The Recipe Binder!
[Reply]
My favorite post was the racerback dress. It helped me conquer my fear of knits, and I loved the results so much my daughter and nieces all wore versions of the dress all summer! Thank you!
[Reply]
Look at all this great loot! I am new to prudent baby… with a baby on the way. I don’t quite have a favorite post yet, but have found some DIY sewing posts helpful and inspiring.
[Reply]
I love your fabric Fridays. So much fun to see your ideas for my new grandkids!
[Reply]
Well, I love “Hot-mess-mommy” because I feel like a hot-mess-mommy almost all the time. And I laugh at loud with all the wine drinking going on. Also, I’ve made 6 snappy toddler dresses and counting…
[Reply]
I enjoyed your post on the bow clutch. It’s in my deep list of to-dos, but I hope to make it some day!
[Reply]
My favorite Prudent Baby DIY, hands down, is the nap roll. My toddler uses it every day at school and I love that it washes up and rolls up easily keeping everything together. I added a little ribbon to the inside where we used to tie in her lovie (a stuffed cheetah) for the first year she used it. That way she could have a snuggle at nap time but it wouldn’t get lost! -Alexis
[Reply]
Love Fabric Fridays, of course, and your sewing tutorials! I love all the little dresses!
[Reply]
I loved the outdoor sofa you made last summer. It’s on my to-do list for someday when we have a yard
[Reply]
I love the tutorials on how to re-purpose old tshirts or other things and make them into fun dresses for girls. I’ve yet to try any of them but they sure do inspire to break out my sewing machine.
Also love the Hot Mess Mommy posts.

i think your website was the first one i started reading regularly after i became pregnant with my first kiddo. i love all the sewing tutorials-it’s too hard to pick a favorite.
[Reply]
Only one? I can’t pick all of the kids clothes? I guess I’ll say how to add sleeves to the jersey dress then because I was really intimidated by sleeves until i actually tried it and realised how easy it was.
[Reply]
My favorite tutrial was on how to make your own bias tape out of any fabric. Life-changing!
[Reply]
Love the blog but most recently used the crayon apron tutorial and the coffee cake in a mug, which was really good!
[Reply]
I like the post on how to make dress up wings. This Halloween my friend and I made them for our kids. They came out great!
[Reply]
I love the DIY Succulent wreath (plus tons of other crafty goodies, too!). I haven’t made it yet, but I think it’s really lovely and maybe someday I’ll get around to making one!
[Reply]
Pick one favorite?! Ohh that’s too hard, but right now, I’d have to say the french toast in a cup has saved breakfast for me many times! Ohh and I just found your reversible bonnet that has made it to the top of my to do list for my little baby girl due in Jan.
[Reply]
My favorite prudent tip is new. The how to clean your blender tip is so simple and it makes cleaning the blender so easy!
[Reply]
I love your tutorials, but I think my most recent favorite post was the Robot Themed Party that you posted! I have a little boy and I think he would love this.
[Reply]
I love alot of your features, and save all kind of ideas. One of my favorites was the DIY pillowcase dress pattern.
[Reply]
I really appreciated your tutorial on how to do an applique using an embroidery machine.
[Reply]
I am partial to the first project I ever tackled…the pillowcase dress. As I had only ever used my sewing machine for mending, when I reflected that I had made a dress I felt so empowered!
[Reply]
I’m fairly new to Prudent Baby – and to motherhood – but I love fabric fridays! I get so much inspiration.
[Reply]
i love fabric fridays. what can i say? i love tradition … and fabric.
[Reply]
Hot mess. Because I’m usually one, too.
[Reply]
I like taking part in the contests bc even though I know I won’t win it motivates me to get projects done.
[Reply]
I love all your yummy recipes
I think you guys come up with the best ones!
[Reply]
I really like the instagram challenges. so FUN. I also made the felt halloween masks and they were tons of fun.
[Reply]
I love fabric fridays!
[Reply]
I first discovered Prudent Baby when my daughter was three months old (she’s now three) and you gals honestly got me through my first year of motherhood! It was fantastic for me to have such fun projects to dream about, and help me get started with blankets, bibs, and I especially love the matching mother/daughter Christmas aprons from your cute tutorial. You are inspiring!!
[Reply]
I discovered Prudent Baby back before I had a baby, and I used to scroll through wishing and praying! Now that I have my own little lady, I make her all kinds of things. I’m currently working on a fleece hooded poncho.
[Reply]
I love the patchwork stocking, and I’m planning on making one for my new little guy!
[Reply]
It’s very hard to choose my favorite. But, I would say the changing pad cover tutorial is something I’ve used the most. It make a great gift for new mom, because let’s face it, changing pad covers get soiled frequently and you can never have too many
[Reply]
i liked the pillowcase dress pattern, now i just have to find the time.
[Reply]
Wow! What a great giveaway! I loved the post on the DIY dolls. I’m looking into making one for my daughter and the ideas were great!
[Reply]
I loved the 25 awesome activities, and your bubble dress
[Reply]
I love your advent calendar post. I am hoping to make something similar before Dec 1
[Reply]
I loved last year’s challenge to embroider words onto something. It motivated me to do something I had never done and it really charged my creative juices. I have items in my home now that I love as a result of that contest and the other tutorials you provide!
[Reply]
One of my fav Prudent posts was about your trip to Jordan. It looked so amazing and adventurous!
[Reply]
Fabric Fridays!! There have been a few yards that I wanted to swipe off the screen!
[Reply]
My favorite is the DIY napmat. I’ve made two and they are in constant use. I had never used a sewing maching before and through this project I learned how to sew! Thanks Prudent Baby, I really enjoy your site.
[Reply]
I love the sewing tutorials, especially like the fitted crib sheet one
[Reply]
I like your Fabric Fridays. I’ve never won one, but you always get such gorgeous fabrics!!
[Reply]
Picking just one is way too hard! But I think my first favorite was definitely the nap mat!
[Reply]
Sewing tutorials! Layer cake skirt was my first (return to) sewing project (since home ec.).
[Reply]
Helloooo! From Argentina! I really love you and I have lots of favourites moments, but I really admires you girls when you write fron your hearts, and laugh a lot when I write in FB from my husband account, Jorge, and you know it is me, but is sounds so absurd Jorge saying “I am a fan, girls! hahaha”
Love you and hope it is an internationall contest!
[Reply]
I love all the tutorials for little girls items. Grear website. Love the posts of facebook/instagram, thanks for sharing your lives with us.
[Reply]
Fabric Fridays Rick-but how to make an oversized clutch would make any girl swoon!

[Reply]
My favorite is Jersey 101, but I also really loved the back porch makeover (which was awesome). I really want to read that book!!
[Reply]
love appaman
[Reply]
I loved loved loved meeting Jaime and Jacinda at the Prudent Advice book signing at Little Bean in Dallas a couple of years ago! Jaime and I shared the fact that our daughters were named colors (mine Violet) and that they aren’t “red people.” Thankfully we are purple people!
[Reply]
Awesome! I love your Felt Fringe Christmas Tree Skirt and I want to make it!
[Reply]
I LOVE fabric Fridays and all the crafts and recipes!!! We LOVE Prudent Baby! I have a 2yo girl and another girl on the way so Giggle is definitely my favorite store!
[Reply]
Prudent Baby opened the door to crafty mommy blogs for me. I don’t know how I missed it all for so long, but I was so glad to find so many inspiring posts and diy’s. Prudent Baby taught me how to develop patterns from what my kids already had, pushing me out of needing to purchase a pattern for everything. Thank You!
[Reply]
I love your lovely sewing tutorials (and fabric Friday).
[Reply]
I loved your 2-MINUTE FRENCH TOAST IN A CUP recipe..I make it quite frequently
[Reply]
love everything about prudent baby!
[Reply]
What a great giveaway – thanks!! There’s so much to love on your sight, but one thing that sticks out is your recent “Keepin’ Pretty & Keepin’ Busy…” post from earlier in November. I’ve been able to use a lot of the ideas that were linked – can’t wait to try more!
[Reply]
I love the sewing tutorials and of course the giveaways
[Reply]
I love all the quick recipes-in-a-cup for myself and am sharing them with my nieces, who only cook ala microwave!
[Reply]
I’m a big fan of all your tutorials. I think my favorite is the snappy dress tutorial. It was easy and turned out so cute!
[Reply]
I really do love the free fabric Fridays but I also really loved the bird wings tutorial! I have yet to make them though!
[Reply]
***The best post ever was the one about the Fantastic Mr. Fox kid outfits, bar none***
[Reply]
ALL of the tutorials!! Love ‘em!
[Reply]
I love this giveaway! Thank you for the opportunity. I love your tutorials on toddler dresses and other clothes. You are so creative. Thank you again!

The trip to see Petra was amazing. I remember going to see an exhibit devoted to Petra with my husband. We planned a day to celebrate out last day child free. That night I was set to be induced.

I love all the swing for kids with the easy patterns!! I also love the quickie food dishes–I am not a good cook and need all the help i can get!
[Reply]
I LOVE the “It’s Friday I’m in love!” posts! Fabric Fridays rock!
[Reply]
I look forward to fabric fridays every week, and I love all the kids related tutorials!
[Reply]
My favorite was definitely when you made a dress – with Liberty of London fabric – without a pattern!!! Liberating.
[Reply]
My favorite thing about Prudent Baby is that everytime I need a tutorial, I know that I can go to PB first because you most likely have exactly what I’m looking for!!
[Reply]
I am still in love with the first post that brought me your way-the DIY nap mat! =)
[Reply]
I love to sew SO Fabric Fridays and the sewing tutorials are definitely my favorites!
[Reply]
I love all the crafting tutorials and the sewing tips!
[Reply]
the quilt binding cheat saved my life, just finished my first quilt and wanted nothing to do with the “real” way after all the hard work and time i put in doing everything else. thanks!
[Reply]
My favorites are the old school diys- the snappy toddler dress and shirt, the nursing cover, and the one I think I’ve used the most- changing table cover!
[Reply]

My favorite post is the hooded towel tutorial – I have given many as baby shower gifts!
[Reply]
So hard to choose one since I’m always finding new things on our site. Thanks so much!
[Reply]
I love all of the DIY posts, I am making the felt hot-air balloon mobile for my son’s room! This is a great blog, and I love how there is something new and interesting every single day. Thanks Prudent Baby!!
[Reply]
Love the t-shirt bias tape dress!!! I used a favorite shirt that hasn’t fit post baby to make a dress for my daughter (who now asks me to turn al my shirts into dresses for her).
[Reply]
Pick my favorite Prudent Baby post?! How can I choose… I did love the diy wings around Halloween but I have to say you do a great job with everything.
[Reply]
My favorite prudent moments are when Jaime or Jacinda (names that sound like they are twins, right?) show us a space renovation. I loved watching Jaime’s patio come together, loved the video. And Jacinda’s porch and laundry room were really fun, too. Love these creative mamas!
[Reply]
Have so many of the ideas but garden treasure hunts are my favorites…. a big chalk… the list written large on the driveway and off they run… collecting 1 Snail shell. 2 white pebbles 3 straight leaves. 4 Curly leaves. 5 shells 6 small stones 7 yellow flowers etc
There little basket comes back full of delights. (Sometimes I hide chocolate coins for them to fine too…)
[Reply]
I have found so much inspiration and many great ideas from your post, thank you!!! Right now, I’m jiving on the felted fringe Christmas tree skirt. I’m in dire need of one and have a bunch of felt already in my stash, I really don’t want to have to ask my mom to bring hers along again this year
Thanks for the great give away!
[Reply]
I love your website! I recently used your tutorial for diy drawstring gift bags to hold my homemade coloring books for my toddler’s upcoming bday party. These are sooo cute and this weeks favorite tutorial!
[Reply]
I like the sewing tutorials
[Reply]
I love all of your items!! I especially love the video doing eyeliner with tape. I tried and it works!! You guys got me into SmashBox and I LOVE it!!
[Reply]
I always enjoy reading your blog, but I really enjoyed your posts and photos from your trip to Jordan!
[Reply]
I loved the quilt binding post…always need a reminder when I get to that point so yours is bookmarked
Thanks for the opportunity!
[Reply]
I love the do it yourself avent calendar! Such a clever idea and great for those goodies that don’t fit in the traditional box. I have three boys now and they LOVE opening something every day…it could be a penny and they’d think it was the best in the world. If I had larger items I’d leave notes in the boxes and send them on a scavenger hunt…but this is much better…I can scatter them all over the house and make them find the right one! Thanks so much for the clever tips!
[Reply]
I really have enjoyed your tutorials. But one of my favorite reads has been Jacinda’s and Jamie’s babble post answering questions about themselves. It made you two even more relatable. Your honesty has been great throughout the blog and Facebook.
[Reply]
I loved the recent post with the stuffed animal foxes, too cute!
[Reply]
I loved the collection of easy-peasy stuff for kids. It just kills me some of the stuff that’s out there that is fantastic for little kids (babies/toddlers) but they charge highway robbery.
[Reply]
I like Fabric Fridays. There are so many cute prints I discovered through that. Thanks!
[Reply]
I like all your sewing tutorials but especially the ones for dresses for little girls.
[Reply]
I LOVE all the DIY’s! Thanks for everything you do!
[Reply]
My favorite Prudent Baby DIY is all the cute and EASY girl clothes you ladies come up with! Love them!
[Reply]
Bias tape tutorial opened up SO many projects to me. I can’t thank you enough!
[Reply]
I really love all the sewing tutorials – especially the “how to” on working with knit fabrics. I ALSO love the kid craft activities…inspires me to be more creative with my kiddos! Really enjoy getting your posts on facebook! Thanks!
[Reply]
It’s hard to say! The crocheted stuff is great as are the sewing tutorials for little girls! I’m about to try the guest post tutorial for the large clutch purse!
[Reply]
I love all the sewing tutorials you post. Even when I don’t follow thru myself I learn alot from reading the instructions!
[Reply]
I’m a first time mom and stumbling upon Prudent Baby was the greatest. You ladies have given me the confidence to take on all the projects I want to do. I love your easy baby blanket tutorials. Keep up the wonderful work!
[Reply]
Last years Christmas tree. I started a Christmas tree fund after that post and will be looking for our magical tree every year from now on because of the pink Christmas Tree
[Reply]
The summmertime jumper! I have made SO MANY of them! Thanks for the chance!
[Reply]
I love that you make so many sewing projects seem possible for me as a beginner. I loved the super simple fleece hooded poncho DIY project.
[Reply]
I love any excursions involving antiques and/or Canton!
[Reply]
Love your pack and play sheet tutorial (one of the first things I ever sewed!) and your parties!
[Reply]
There are so many articles to choose from it’s hard to pick just one! But one of my favorites is the french toast in a cup!!! Love how easy and yes, decadent it is to make and eat!!!!! And I love both of the book you have out!!!
[Reply]
Omg. The sewing tutorials (zippers!) Have been great! I use them all the time.
[Reply]
I have made and re-made your hooter hider tutorial! Love it!
[Reply]
It’s pretty sweet that you give a yard of fabric away every Friday!
[Reply]
I’ve definitely been meaning to try the tutorial on the faux chenille baby blanket. Its one of my favorites!
[Reply]
I’ve always liked the sewing tutorials – especially the toddler duvet and pillowcase dress tutes.
[Reply]
I always love Fabric Fridays – I have gotten some really awesome new ideas for my nursery!
[Reply]
I was introduced to your website by a friend and the first post I saw was when you were demonstrating how to do a cat eye makeup using tape. It was entertaining (and brave to video yourself!!) and informative and I’ve loved your website ever since!
[Reply]
i like the recipes, diy tree skirt, bird costume-halloween diy, pillowcase dresses and makeover backyard space. thanks
[Reply]
My favorite posts are the “how tos” but most recently the videos of baking have been a joy!
[Reply]
Friday Fridays are pretty sweet! Your bonnet tutorial is great too!
[Reply]
I want to win, I never win anything!! I love Prudent Baby but most recently I loved the advice on buying sewing machines, I just got a new one and it has changed my life!
[Reply]
Oh Lord, what DON’T I love?! My favorite projects seem to be the hooded towel and the DIY swaddler, both of which have become my go-to baby shower present. But I’ve also wanted to make those awesome bird wings for awhile now, because they’re just so stinking cute!
[Reply]
Aarrgghh! I can’t pick just one!!! I’ve tried/used many over the year or so I’ve been a reader. Probably some of my more recent faves have been the easy blender cleaner trick (yay! so easy now to clean the beast!) and the two minute Nutella Cake saved the day for our family night last Monday! (Bad mommy for not buying a treat earlier in the day…but we all LOVED the Nutella cake-yum!)
Thanks, ladies, for what you do, and keep up the great work!
[Reply]
I LOVE the furnature section. Theres so many great ideas that I cannot wait to get my hands into…especially the refinish of old to new chairs etc!
[Reply]
You guys have great sewing tutorials! I need to stop just looking and actually start doing!!
[Reply]
The sewing tutorials are the best!

I always appreciate your round-ups of tutorials, especially the 25 Free Dresses for Babies and Toddlers: http://prudentbaby.com/2011/07/baby-kid/make-for-baby-25-free-dress-tutorials-for-babies-toddlers-2/
[Reply]
I enjoyed watching the “Get Rich Quick: Girls Weekend” video. Looked like so much fun and motivated me to spend more mommy-night-outs!
[Reply]
How to can tomatoes (without a canner)! I’ve been using, printing and sharing this post for two years. And will be enjoying the fruits of our labor (pun – ugh!) at dinner tonight!
[Reply]
I loved the FB post “hand cramp” picture. It made me laugh and think about all of the little things we do for our kids that they never know about because we love them so much, including holding up their head while they nap in the car. Tied with that is the prince lego/figure in the coffe cup.
Thanks for posting the little things that give me a smile each day.
[Reply]
I love your pictures… ALL of them, but especially the “as they grow” photos. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us!
[Reply]
I love reading the blog everyday, but the project I have made the most is the toddler backpack. Love it!
[Reply]
My favorites are your party posts. I love the DIY party hats with tissue paper poofs and the “tissue paper number” posts.
[Reply]
I love the hot mess mommy blogs! They help me take back naptime as a time to do something for myself! The key fobs are a fast favorite because they are great fast gifts.
[Reply]
My favorite moment was when I won fabric! I had NEVER won anything in my entire life before then!
[Reply]
I love the t-shirt makeovers and all the cute dress tutorials.
[Reply]
I love ANY dessert-in-a-cup tutorial!

I love to visit your blog to get inspiration on what to make, do and buy! Your tutorials are easy and fun, the products you talk about are cute, and always make me want them!
[Reply]
i love the how to make a bow tie tutorial! i made them for my son and he loved it!
[Reply]
The pillowcase dress, no doubt about it!
[Reply]
I’m new to your blog, but a friend told me about the sweater pants…and the tutorial was awesome! I made them with success and they are tres bohemian chic if I do say!

Loved the zipper installation trick on the zipper pillow tutorial. Plus all the other amazing blogs you’ve introduced me to! You ladies are fabulous!
[Reply]
First, I love this site! I’ve been an avid visitor for slightly over two years, and a fun project makes its way to my table every visit! I think my favorite Prudent Baby moment happened when I was eight months preggo. I was an emotional disaster and my sweet hubby was doing his very best to retain sanity for the both of us – I was nearly done with THE baby blanket for our first kiddo and had continuously run into disaster while making the bias tape. After my third try I just ran out of patience and ripped the bias tape right off the blanket, of course tearing the soft blanket fabric to shreds in the process … and promptly started sobbing. My (amazing!) hubby listened to my babbling before suggesting searching on that “smart baby” website I loved – and I was then introduced to your bias tape tutorials, which I still use. Your suggestions saved the blanket, and I’ve been eternally grateful.
You also introduced me to Pinterest, which has killed some of my work ethic but richly enhanced my crafting life!
[Reply]
The tute I use the most is the scotch tape cat eye trick video. So, I’d have to say that’s my favorite PB moment!
[Reply]
Loved the DIY “PILLOWCASE” BABY DRESS PATTERN – so easy even I was not daunted!
[Reply]
Love all the craft projects! Thanks for a great giveaway!!
[Reply]
My favorite Prudent Baby DIY is how to make bias tape, so useful!!
[Reply]
Thanks for the giveaway! I love all Jaime’s posts, especially her hair and outfits ones. My favorite was the family road trip post, and the “I have to go pee” line in order to get hubby to pull over so she can check out the shops. SO funny- love you guys!!
[Reply]
I love your recent gold leaf video.
[Reply]
I am currently obsessed with making my own bias tape… which I didn’t even know you could do until I read about it on Prudent Baby. Got myself one of those fancy little machines and have spent about the last 10 hours of sewing time making tape, tape and more tape!! I love the stuff! I even made 9 of the bias tape fabric (reversable!) purses for Christmas gifts. Am currently working on adding tape to an existing long-sleeved peasant top for my 2 & 4 year old daughters. So much fun!
[Reply]
I am just learning to sew and love your tuts! But the hair posts have helped this back to work mom the most!

By far, the mug cake is my favorite! So yummy and comes in handy when I need a little something in the evening;)
[Reply]
Loving the 5 min coffee cake in a cup!
[Reply]
I love your posts so much that I usually stop by daily for a dose of Prudent time. My favorite posts so far were the crib sheet and changing pad cover tutorials. Our nursery is an extension of our bedroom and I couldn’t bear to look at “baby” fabrics ready made items come in. Thanks for helping make our home pretty!
[Reply]
I initially started looking at Prudent Baby for sewing tutorials on makeup bags an craft ideas for my classroom since I have no kids of my own(yet). I think my favorite post so far is the redecoration of your craft room. I love how you involved everyone in the process and let us in on it. You ladies are so amazing!
[Reply]
Love, love, love the tree skirt you just posted! Going to make one for our tree this year. Thanks for the great idea!
[Reply]
Nap roll! Grandma is making one for Christmas–can’t wait to see it done.
[Reply]
I’m not sure I could pick a favorite, but I just made your ‘DIY Fabric Lunch Bag’ last night as a gift for my sister and it turned out great!
[Reply]
Slow Cooker Freezer Recipes is a must-have for me. I use my slow-cookers all the time. Having dinner ready on a crazy day helps me keep my sanity.
And the 1-yard fleece poncho is on my to-do list. I’m not a sewer, but I’ll enlist an aunt or grandma who is to assist.
Love the enewsletters!

LOVE all your sewing DIY’s! The fold-over clutch is calling my name!

I wanted to share a reversible vest I made my Grandaughter but dont know how : (

Love the tutorials. If I had to choose one, it would be the snappy dress/top. It was the first piece of clothing I made for my daughter.
[Reply]
I LOVE the “Pretty Potholders” I’ve been looking for new potholders since my puppy ate my old ones. The tutorial is simple and effective. I love you site!

My favorite Prudent baby moment was when the baby boy joined the gang bc I now have boy clothes to make…of course since I am now an aunt I am practicing making dresses for my own baby girl (one day)!
I love your site and all your ideas!
[Reply]
My favorite moment was by far when I was in the top ten of your embroidery contest last year for my Shel Silverstein inspired shirt – it was a HUGE moment for me!!!

I loved your back porch makeover!!!
[Reply]
As a novice sewer, I love all of the sewing tutorials!
[Reply]
I love the creativity with the d-i-y projects and how affordable it can be. It’s a great way to bond with the kids and engage them in taking part in holidays, celebrations, regular days, etc. Love the site too!!
[Reply]
Ive absolutely loved the peasant dress/top tutorial and made several versions of it for my daughter – and I love reading your posts! Your blog always makes me smile (which is pretty valuable at the end of a long day!)
[Reply]
I love the sewing tutorials !!!!

I love the tutorials…although it would be hard to pick just one!
[Reply]
i love your diy roundups. especially the nativity one from a couple of weeks ago. so many cute ideas!!
[Reply]
For sure the recipes! I love anything to do with food, lol!
[Reply]
I must say I am a pretty big fan of your last post on the felt tree skirt. So adorable!
[Reply]
Any sewing tutorials with your awesome photos are very appreciated, thanks for them. I’m reading you daily!
[Reply]
My favorite Prudent Baby post was the series on sewing with knits and the stocking competition last year.I made my daughter a cool toddler friendly activity stocking with the helpof all your info and she loves playing with it and it looks great too!
[Reply]
I love all the crafting ideas and have used several of them!
[Reply]
I appreciate all the obvious love and thought that goes into every post, so it’s tough to choose….but you gave me the courage to try shirring elastic, and I am ever so grateful!
[Reply]
I recently started following you after finding your tutorial for making the sweetest tooth fairy pocket. Right now the felt creation is waiting on a shelf in the closet. My daughter is so eager to lose her first tooth. I think my sweetest Prudent Baby moment will be when I give it to her to put under her pillow. I can’t wait!
[Reply]
I love fabric fridays and I love all the patterns and ideas for clothes for my little girl.
[Reply]
I love the Most Flattering Shirtdress tutorial. I made one of my own and I love love love it! I always get so many compliments on it. I love saying “thanks, I made it myself!”
[Reply]
I love fabric Friday!
[Reply]
This is totally cheesy, but my favorite Prudent Baby moments are when you are physically together creating videos or tutorials! Your happiness in getting to see each other is infectious. I also love how much one of you (Jaime, I think?) loves champagne.
[Reply]
You have lots of great posts and the ‘I’m in love Fridays’ are always fun, but my one favorite post is the one for making teacup candles. I had seen many pictures of teacup candles but didn’t know how to make them; I know now though! All I’m waiting for now is to find the perfect teacup!
[Reply]
Just found your blog through babble. Really enjoying looking throiugh old posts! I’ve got some catching up to do.
I’m looking forward to trying out many of your tips & making the wrist keychain holders for some pals.
[Reply]
Our favorite is still the Monster Spray! We still use it!! This giveway looks so fun!
[Reply]
I love fabric fridays!
[Reply]
Wow! what a nice giveaway! It’s so hard to tell which craft has been my favourite or helpful. I’d go with fabric friday because it’s always nice to see fabric suggestions.
[Reply]
You have so many fabulous posts, that like a lot of people, it is hard to pick just one. In particular though, I am inspired by the do sewing crafts that you post and realize, once I get my sewing machine set up, that I could probably make most of the things that you post. And of course, they are all adorable! Thank you for being such an inspiration!
[Reply]
I love, love, love Fabric Fridays!
[Reply]
I love all the DIYs! Most recently loved the round-up DIY holiday stuff including dolls and softies. Most of them went straight to my to-do list!

My favorite post — well that’s pretty tough, but if I have to pick one: Your recipe for an individual microwave choc chip cookie (and that coffee cake isn’t far behind). I’m newer to the site, but I’m having a blast checking out all your older posts — definitely looking forward to what’s to come!
[Reply]
The snappy toddler top! It got me hooked on Prudent Baby!
[Reply]
Honestly, I read so many blogs that I can’t keep up with any of the great ideas that I get from them. My 2 kids are under 2 yrs and its a miracle to get to look at the computer at all.
But…I do love to browse your posts late at night. Thanks and keep up the good work!
[Reply]
I like the nap mat!
[Reply]

I have a love/hate relationship with fabric fridays. I love love love love them but I hate how they make me want to buy more fabric! As I don’t already have enough!
[Reply]
I love the Prudent Advice posts
[Reply]
I love the tu-tu-torial!! I’ve made two tu-tus now and plan on making more for Christmas gifts. They’re so much more fun than the plain tie ones that are all over. It has just the right touch to make it a special gift. Thanks for that one!!

The succulent wreath is my current favorite!
[Reply]
I’m not sure I have a favorite, per se, but I love your DIY tutorials (just wish my motivation was commensurate with my inspiration…sigh)
I will say that the two-minute nutella cake (I think that’s what it was called?) might have saved my marriage a few weeks ago after I discovered that my husband had eaten the whole tub of ice cream…
[Reply]
gosh, it’s hard to pick just one!! I always love the Friday I’m in Love posts, and all of the kids stuff DIY posts!
[Reply]
I really enjoyed seeing the craft room redecoration. It gave me the confidence to re-purpose an outside shed we have into a sewing/craft room for myself. Thanks!
[Reply]
I love the sewing tutorials but my favorite posts were the 2 minutte chocolte cake in a cup and french toast in a cup.
[Reply]
