Quick Update

Hey friends! I know you are all hoping for my Blockheads block and Lone Star block giveaway winner announcement. However, we had a bad storm come through Monday night and our little town is without power and internet.

I’m able to post this quick announcement from my phone and I’ll hopefully be able to post the next Beautiful Day mystery block on Saturday. Right now they are saying our power will be restored Saturday afternoon so I may need to push back the block release until next week. Fingers crossed it comes back on!

We are all doing great though…no damage to our house. We had downed trees and branches and so much debris but we are all safe and well!

I’ll keep you updated!…have a wonderful Wednesday!

    Don’t give it a second thought. Just glad you are all right. It is aweful to be without power, though. We go through that nearly every hurricane season in NC. Not fun . Absolutely love the Blockheads quilt. Will do more for sure.

    Thanks, Corey, for the update. I’m just east of you here in Perry Township/Massillon and have been concerned about my friends in Wayne and Holmes Counties. Glad all is well with you and yours — for the most part; don’t happen to have a treadle machine on hand so you can keep quilting do you?

    I’m in southern Ohio and got hit by the same storm. We were without power for less than 24 hours, so I can’t complain. Out of 166k that lost power, there are still 8K without. Glad to hear you didn’t have damage!

  33. So sorry the weather is so uncooperative! Very happy to read no major damage. Hope your power is restored soon.

  51. Jan B. says:

    So glad you & your family are safe! Was it a derecho that went thru your town. I heard Fort Wayne, IN a had a derecho but I’m not sure how close you are to that city. If it was, those types of storms can do a LOT of damage very quickly, almost like a tornado. Being without electricity for a number of days is a bummer! We’ll be here when your back in business. 😉

  52. Sondra Hill says:

    So happy to hear you guys are ok. Prayers for your family and friends.

    Glad you are safe and only a little bit of down trees, cleanup is never fun as I have that too. Thank you for keeping us up dated.

  56. Theresa says:

    I’m praying for you and your community. I hope your power will be back on sooner than they say. I know what it’s like to be without power, water and telephone for seven days due to a hurricane. I appreciate all your videos and everything you do for us!

  60. Happy to hear you’re safe and well 🥰 🙏

  61. Mary Ronsman says:

    Sorry to hear about the storm & loss of power. Most importantly is that everyone is safe. We had some wicked weather tonight, but some people just a few miles down the road had trees uprooted and tons of wind damage. No matter how bad we think we have it, there is always someone who is going through a rougher time.

  62. No problem. Take care of you and your family

    Weather is rough everywhere, glad you all are okay. Ruth Cheatham.

  73. Mary Brown says:
