Historical Embroidery News...

'Our' farm burnt to the ground...

3/9/2017

54 Comments

 
Just a short post to let you all know that in the early hours of 2nd of September, the 400-year old farm building 'Lötschmüllerhof' burnt to the ground. Amazingly nobody got hurt and even the oxen that could not be freed in time survived the inferno without a scratch! The best proof that angels watch over stubborn oxen too. Luckily, the apartment we live in has very little damage. However, our lovely land-lord and land-lady (our additional parents) lost everything, but have now taken up residency in one of the other apartments. Not exactly home, but still theirs. Making sure that they are okay takes presidency over running Märchenhaftes Sticken. I am sure you will all understand. However, workshops and courses will run as normal. Maybe interrupted for an important phone call or emptying out the washing machine (my small Miele is the only one functioning at the moment). Here are pictures of what the farmstead looks like at the moment. Video footage and pictures of the inferno can be found online when you type 'Bad Bayersoien' into the news section of Google. We have been very impressed with the many men and women fire fighters, neighbours, red cross and THW who came so unselfishly to our aid. And so a new chapter begins. But with this amazing group of people I am sure we will do it!

Hallo Annelot, je moet aan de achterkant zijn van de uitgebrande boerderij. Mijn woning is nog prima en de studio heeft ook niets. Tot morgen om 10 uur!

Oh Jessica wat een vreselijk nieuws heel erg voor deze lieve mensen. Ik heb daar zulke mooie foto's gemaakt en dan te bedenken dat ze alles kwijt zijn. het is een groot geluk dat niemand ook de dieren niet gewond zijn geraakt. Ik wens jullie heel veel sterkte als er iets is dat ik voor jou of je buren kan betekenen laat het gerust even weten. Veel sterkte om in deze chaos les te geven en het hoofd koel te houden, liefs Hans en Mabel

You truly have a few angels watching over all of you. I'm so sorry for your life disruption but at least you have each other. Everything else can be replaced in time. Hug each other and be kind to each other as the stresses arise as you all move forward.

This is such sad news to hear of this tragic loss of the beautiful 400-year old farm building. I remember when you first moved to the farm, and how excited you were. I am so sorry for the loss you and your landlords have suffered. A long clean-up effort and rebuild is ahead of your landlords.

Thank you Terry! Although my loss is small compared to that of my land lord and lady, I too feel as if my family home is gone. Me and my family have spent so many happy summer vacations here. But after the clean up, we will work on new happy memories!

Dear Jessica,
I am so sorry to read about the terrible experience you've had at your farm. Glad to know no one got hurt, which is the most important thing. It is frightful.
I live in a fire prone State, California USA, which at the time is burning like crazy. I had the same experience a couple of years ago, the wind changes so fast the fires jump without control. We are in a constant state of alert during this time of year.
