Hello all and welcome to this week's Sunday Showcase! This week, we're featuring the pincushion chickens by Zettie Williams! These adorable sewing sidekicks are not only cute, but are patterned with the Nova Scotian tartan (which originated right here in Terence Bay!) and work wonderfully to hold your pins while you sew! With a weighted bottom, they'll stay in place while you work, and, of course, keep you company! Stop by today to take home one of these adorable friends today!

Thank you all so so much for coming to our immersive escape room experience! It was a roaring success and we hope everyone had a fantastic time! We were able to raise a lot of money and have a lot of fun setting up puzzles, riddles, and creating an atmosphere to transport you directly back aboard the SS Atlantic!! Congratulations to everyone who stopped the ship and managed to escape in time! And, of course, thank you to our wonderful SSA Summer staff who made all of this possible! Let us know if this is an event you would like to see return in future years! Thank you all again for your support πŸ’™πŸŒŠ
