Sorry if you came to the shop today and found it closed. My heart seemed to be having issues this morning and after an ambulance ride to emergency, I was told I’m okay. The shop will reopen tomorrow.

Judy Cooper, from Pine Grove, NS popped in today for a major show and tell. She said she promised to come back when she finished because she bought some wool from the shop for the project. We are so happy she did. She’s won several awards and it’s on its way to Alberta for another show. There was so much to see, every spot filled with amazing mushrooms, fancy stitches and bling. What a masterpiece! Mushrooms of the World indeed!
