Halloween Trick or Treat Blog Hop 2018

Hello fellow stitchers and followers!
If you are here regularly then you know that Halloween is not in my stitching themes.
But last year I decided I really wanted to stitch something on the subject and I was lucky enough to win one of Jo's  of Serendipitous stitching giveaways.
It was Happy Halloween and I really loved it and stitched it.
It took me almost a year to do so LOL!I am a slow stitcher!
Jo even gifted me with the glow-in-the-dark thread for it.
So here it is !
How do you like it?
 Some details.



  I framed it into an old IKEA frame I already had.
 Here it is hanging on my kitchen wall along with other Halloween items I have.

And here you can see the glow-in-the-dark ghosts and moon and stars of the pattern in my poor photos. 




The Halloween Trick or Treat Blog Hop is an amusing way to spend sometime visiting blogs this Halloween and is organised by Jo again. 
You can find all the blogs here.
If you visit all the blogs gather the letters each blog gives and decode the secret phrase.
Then run back to Jo's blog to tell her the phrase. You have a week to do so.
It's fun! Also you may win one of her gifts.
If you leave a comment here on my blog about my stitched frame let me know if you would be interested in stitching Happy Halloween yourself. I will randomly choose one of the comments to send the pattern to anywhere in the world.
Since it was gifted to me I want to gift it too.
So please mention if you are interested in winning it!I will leave this open till November 7th.
 As you can see Barca my dog always helps me when I take pictures!
Finally the letter I was given for the phrase is the letter L. It's L like we say LEMON, LOL! I stitched the letter myself. I have made a whole booklet with the alphabet. You can read all about it here.
And now go to the next blog to pay a visit! It is the wicked stitcher!
Enjoy the blog hop!
Halloween hugs from me!

It was Halloween

Although we don't celebrate Halloween in Greece I always do the custom at school in a lesson for the children to get to know the British and American customs.
With some of the children we did this colouring page and I made muffins for them in a special Trick or Treat muffin paper that Marabeth had sent me last year.


I also showed them these things I recently bought.
And gave them some stickers I had brought from the States.
And then in the afternoon I went to Peirama for a Halloween workshop with a needle felted pumpkin (of course I was the one to make it in fuchsia!) taught by the talented Christina of Celdeconail




 And we also made a little ghost out of felt taught by Aggeliki of Pocolocini.
It was fun!
