My husband’s first cousin once removed is absolutely adorable and is about to turn one. She has her own quilt but doesn’t have any Lunden clothes yet so I figured it was the right to rectify the situation. The best part is that she is a little Los Angeles baby so I can have her in sundresses all year round. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will get some actions shots soon. The cutest part of this whole project is that my husband picked out the fabric.

Read MoreThis dress was a labor of love. It took two different types of fabric, two different patterns and a whole lot of time before getting it right.

Read MoreHere is another tunic baby dress I just finished up. I was toying between the contrasting aqua with white polka dots for the trim and some pink, orange and brown polka dots. I went with the aqua on this one but there is enough corduroy for another version. I kept this dress pretty simple with just a little detail around the neck, arms and the finish on the hem, along with a little top stitching on the seams. I am picturing some tights and a little long sleeve t-shirt to complete the...
