Throwback Thursday: Harry Potter Style

Welcome back to Throwback Thursday on Fandom In Stitches! Each week, we revisit our fandom roots by sharing an updated version of Harry Potter patterns from way back before FiS was A Thing!

Here we have one of my all-time favorite Harry Potter-themed blocks, The Knight Bus. After many requests, I've also included an additional version of the pattern with pieced wheels. Both patterns are in one document, link below.

Like all patterns shared during Throwback Thursday, this pattern was originally shared on Harry Potter Paper Piecing, a Livejournal community, and the predecessor to Fandom in Stitches.

For the most up-to-date pattern links for all patterns,

Originally posted to Harry Potter Paper Piecing, March 2008: 

There was a deafening BANG and Harry threw up his hands to shield his eyes against a sudden blinding light... 

With a yell, he rolled back onto the pavement, just in time. A second later, a gigantic pair of wheels and headlights had screeched to a halt exactly where Harry had just been lying. They belonged, Harry saw when he raised his head, to a triple-decker, violently purple bus, which had appeared out of thin air. Gold lettering over the windscreen spelled The Knight Bus.

The Knight Bus originally appeared in my first Harry Potter quilt, the project that started all this fandom quilting madness: My Magical Lens, 2005 - 2007
