Stories from the Fandom in Stitches Community: Abbie D (@sewcrazyvt)




I first discovered Fandom in Stitches while searching for anything related to Harry Potter quilting. I had just lost my dad suddenly, and quilting became a way to process that grief. Harry Potter had always been a source of comfort for me, and as I returned to quilting—an art I’d never taken very seriously earlier in life—I found myself needing something creative to hold onto.





During one of those searches, I stumbled across this incredible site. Over the next six months, I not only taught myself foundation paper piecing, but I also worked through a great deal of heartache. As I stitched my first Harry Potter project, I uncovered a true love for the quilting process itself, and I continue to grow and evolve in my quilting journey.

Thank you, Fandom in Stitches, for being part of my healing and my creative path.
