Well here he is!   Benjamin Paul Lashua.   He came on time (June 8th) and is just as perfect as possible.  But I’m not biased.  When I last posted I still had to finish the bottom of the chair and put a panel on the back to conceal the original chair in the opening.   I was able to knock this all out while my daughter and her husband spend two days in the hospital.   I made the piping ahead of time as well as hemmed the skirt so I could spend as much time as possible holding Ben and playing with Addy.   I kept it simple by only adding corner pleats to the skirt. 

My daughter hired a photographer to come to the house to take some professional newborn pictures and I was fortunate to be able to have her take a few with this special chair.  What do you think?

 It’s been a busy few months since I first launched this website, with two moves and the birth of my second grandchild and almost weekly trips to our lake house.   So needless to say, this business has taken a back seat for a moment.  I’m getting anxious to get going though and am ready to take on any projects you might have.  I just finished a chair for our lake house and am super thrilled with how it turned out (pics and post to come soon). 

Until next time,
