Hallowe'en Trick or Treat Blog Hop 2013

2013 Hallowe'en Blog Hop

Welcome to the spooky hallowe’en mystery phrase blog hop!

All you need to do is visit each of the following blogs in order, jot down the letter displayed with their Hallowe'en stitched picture then return here and leave a comment telling me the Mystery Phrase.

It'd be nice if you left a comment on their blog too, especially if it's new to you.

I've enabled "moderate comments before publishing" for the next week so no-one can copy anyone else!

There will be a small prize for one person picked at random from the guessers.  People who posted a picture  will get one chance for that and another chance if they make a guess too.

So without further ado,
start the blog hop – enter if you dare…

and then back to me for this letter:

G

This is Fang, a Hallowe'en special from Dragon Dreams


Don't forget, some of us are on different time zones so if you visit a blog and can't find a letter or picture yet, pop back later in the day.  The competition is open for one week closing 00.01 hours 7th November GMT.


happy hunting!


        
all from Hyraea


Finally, Theme-a-licious Looking Backward and Forward X will follow on All Saints' Day tomorrow.

I don't celebrate Halloween, but any excuse to look at lots of lovely blogs is a bonus - so thanks for organising this! I managed to sort out "Eye of Newt and toe of Frog" from following your trail. Happy Halloween if you celebrate it yourself!

What a fun hop - and a great way to celebrate Halloween. The mystery phrase: Eye of newt and toe of frog.

I just loved looking at all the stitching, especially as cross-stitch is a passion of mine, although my last completed project took a lot of years (it was huge), and quilts go much faster. Thanks for hosting this fun hop!

Hi Jo. We'll the phrase of course is "Eye of newt and toe of frog". Would you believe I didn't keep a note of the first few letters in order and spent ages trying to work out the phrase?!

I've really enjoyed blog hopping and have found some gorgeous new-to-me blogs which I'm now following...I guess that was the point but it's been very enjoyable. Thank you for organising this.
