Good Fences-Halloween Edition
To honor my friend Tex I wanted to include a few fun fences for our week long Halloween theme.
Please enter. It's ok. This one is as creepy as it gets!
Source
This one is actually a Spook House in Oregon. Not sure I would Enter but the fence is cool!
Source
Now thats a lot of jack o laterns. Someone did a lot of carving!
Source
Very cool display. I'd love to see it at night.
Source
Who says a picket fence can't be a little creepy. Maybe this is the cottage Hansel and Gretal went to.
And a little modern one. I thought this was a cool idea!
Source
Very creative idea!
I am a fan of artwork. I don't have any Halloween or Fall themed When I saw this one I decided I need to start a collection . . .

Festive Quilts
Welcome to the first ever My Journey Back Halloween Quilt show.
I've been visiting Pinterest on a search for festive quilts.
Mainly because this one caught my interest . . .
Source
I'm lovin' this cute little witch. I'm definately making this one. Look at the 3D legs on her! Very nice quilting.
I thought she was sooooo cute I'd see what else I could find!
Source
How fun and simple!
Source
Oh my next one. Isn't this cute and Ohhhh Sooo Simple!
Source
Oh my goodness. Not a fan of the medalions on the borders but the rest is speaking to me.
I love the flying geese.
I found this one when I looked for the above link . . .
Adorable. I'm so glad that I found Pink Penguin. A quilter I'll definitely visit often! This quilt she found in a quilt shop.
Source
I shared this one a few days ago on another post. Just in case you missed it. I wanted to share it again!
Source
Yes those are really lights! This is one amazing quilt. It's actually a medium size wall hanging.
Source
So simple. And so cute. I love the how brave she was to venture out to a cemetery for the shot!
Source
Oh I really wanted to know more about this one. The link was to a Flicker page. I was intrigued because of the awesome spiral quilting. And the applique. This quilter is very talented. Did you notice the cute pumpkin fabric?
Source
What a fun monster!
Source
This was sold but the above link is to the Etsy shop. I'm not a fan of skulls but this is an amazing quilt. The quilting and the piecing is Fabulous.
More my style. Lovin' this one (the Pinterest link didn't work)
And last but not least. This one is mine . . .
I posted about this guy here.
I hope you enjoyed the festive quilt tour. I was inspired. I am going to my sewing room and tackle that Scarecrow again.

Party Food--Yumeee
I love parties. Give me an excuse and I want to whip up something festive.
Thought I would share a few ideas I've collected off Pinterest . . .
Source
You have to visit Kara's blog. She has put together a complete outdoor party. Black cats are all over the place.
Source
Don't these look so fun. A Lot of work but oh so fun!
Source
I didn't go to the blog to look at the recipe. But what a fun idea. This idea would be good for an Ocean Themed Party
Source
And the simple yet just adorable witch's brooms. This photo was the one that started this entire post.
Saw it and began to wonder what other fun food I could fin.
Source
Another simple one. Some people are so creative.
Source
Oh I love these mummies. So cute. I want to have a party just to make these.
And one more I save till last . . .

Wednesday Wit and Wisdom
A funny story for Wit and Wisdom . . . as told by The Cowboy
Part 1 Source
Moms story. . .
What a 'sweet' picture. I watched as my darling 'sweet children' walked off down the street collecting candy from the neighbors.
".Now be sure and watch out for your brother he's little!" I warned her.
I laughed as I heard her grubbling. "You really should have been Batman. Popeye is stupid."
I clicked my throat loudly and she turned and smiled the cherub little smile she has.
As they skipped happily down the street I went back into the house to collect the supplies for the neighborhood party.
I had to rush to make it around the corner and be at the party at the base community center before the kids arrived.
It was the early '60s on an American Air Force Base in England.
A few minutes later I watched Cowboys, Indians, Princesses, Astronauts, and Skeletons run through the door.
And then Cinderella walked in the door with the Military Police. But where was Popeye?
Startled I ran to the door asking where is he? Where's your brother? The officer answered saying 'She said he came with you!"
I was horrified! Moments later slowly walking up the steps was Popeye. His little face mask was up revealing his face his precious eyes filled with tears.
I smiled happily to see my little Popeye clutching his grocery sack to his chest wet and rumpled from the rain that had begun to fall.
Come back next week for part two. The story told by Cowboy
