Welcome to my final cross-posting from Sewhooked and a month of celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Harry Potter. Today, I'm sharing a fun new set, 26 uppercase letters inspired by the U.S. Chapter Titles.

Very little has changed from the original pattern for block two. As with all other updates, this pattern now includes a size scale so you can make sure your pattern is the correct size before you piece. Notations have also been made for option books (see image below).
Extra books in the spaces instead of background fabric.
For best results print with NO SCALING. In Google Drive (where this file is hosted) uncheck “fit to page..”See your printer instructions for more details if needed. Scale included on every page for your convenience.
On the actual pattern, WHITE indicates background fabric. All other colors are approximate representations (colors are intentionally light to save ink), but you are welcome to use any fabric colors you may choose.
All patterns finish 10" (10 1/2" unfinished). Seam allowance is included.
You will need approximately 3 yards of background fabric for individual blocks plus optional quilt border. You'll also need various amounts of scrap fabrics for books and magical objects.
To complete your quilt, you will also need 1 yard of “shelf” fabric.100% quilting cotton is recommended for best results. Fabric amounts are for optional layouts finishing 61”x 78” - 63” x82”. Different quilt layouts may require more fabric.
This is the original Harry Potter-inspired Bookcase Quilt called The Project of Doom (PoD), designed by me, Jennifer Ofenstein in 2011, but many of the patterns have received minor updates and all will now include a size scale so you can check your pattern size before you stitch.
There will be some alternative patterns presented. Some blocks will include alternative pieces and, in some cases, entire alternative blocks.
For those of you looking to create a Dark Arts version, I have plans for that, too!
The original patterns will continue to be available, so if you prefer to use the 2011 pattern, that's a-okay!
All Project of Doom patterns are 100% free and they will stay that way. These patterns are free for your personal and NON-profit use only. Not to be used for manufacture or distribution. Sale of this pattern or quilts made from this pattern is prohibited.
About the Quilt Along:
Like the original Project of Doom, our 2015 Quilt Along will be one presented one quilt block a week (with an occasional bonus/alternative) on each Wednesday for 30 weeks.
All Project of Doom QAL activities, prizes, etc. will be posted on fandominstitches.com.
Join the QAL at anytime during 2015 and work at your own pace. There is no penalty for starting late.
If you've already started your PoD quilt, you are more than welcome to join us! It helps on a project like this to be cheered along by friends!
.If you're looking to design your own PoD blocks...just you wait, we'll have a special week to share your patterns at the end of the Quilt Along!
Welcome to the first Harry Potter-themed prize donated by me for sharing your 2015 PoD photos with our Fandom In Stitches Flickr group! The January winner will receive the officially licensed Harry Potter fabric seen here, a box of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans and enough Jelly Bean fabric for his or her Project of Doom quilt!
Since this prize is coming out of my own stash, only blocks made from my original patterns (unaltered/unedited) are eligible to win.
Why share via flickr? It's the best way for me to post your photos right here on fandominstitiches.com! Every Tuesday, we have a virtual show & tell called Tuesday Photos so everyone following along can see an entire week's picture in one place every Tuesday.
If you've participated in events like this with me before, then you know that I LOVE signature quilts! I'd like to invite everyone participating in the 2015 Project of Doom Quilt Along to share a block for a special 2015 Signature Quilt. Names can be hand or machine embroidered, printed fabric, fabric pen, marker, or stenciled with fabric paint/pen, etc. are all acceptable. Please, no iron-ons or transfers. This quilt is my way of remembering everyone that quilted along in 2015!
Want to make blocks, but don't need a whole quilt? Have you made blocks in the past but would like to start over?
I'm collecting Project of Doom blocks all year long to make fun charity quilts for The Linus Connection, which provides quilts for kids in crisis Central Texas!
If you have blocks to donate, you can get my mailing address from the Signature Block pattern(above). Donations to The Linus Connection are tax deductible in the U.S. If you'd like a receipt, please let me know when you send your blocks.

While there wasn't a huge response for the event, I continued to update my own Harry Potter-themed patterns (you can see all of my HP designs on Sewhooked). After working on them quite sporadically during the first half of the year, I finally just started at the top and have been updating ALL of my earlier patterns.
What a job!
Most of my non-Project of Doom HP designs date from 2005 - 2007, when I was working on my first Harry Potter quilt. I've had oodles of practice since then, and I wanted to give all of my older designs a good overhaul so they reflect my current style. Many of the designs stayed exactly the same, they're just cleaner and easier to work with. I've also come across a number of patterns that had either never been released, were part of The Project of Doom but would make a great stand-alone block, or needed a complete redo.
Hand of Glory, complete redesign of an older pattern
by Jennifer Ofenstein
5" paper pieced
Just for fun, this is the reference photo I used to draw The Hand of Glory! I draw almost all of my patterns from scratch and use all kinds of crazy things for reference, myself included!
Eagle Owl, adapted from The Project of Doom The Eagle Owl is included in the PoD as an alternative block for Hedwig. This version has been entirely redrafted.

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!
Today's post includes the sign of the Deathly Hallows. While obviously pivotal to the storyline, the symbol has come to represent everything the connection between we fans of Harry Potter.
Posted on Harry Potter Paper Piecing, January 2008:
"The Elder Wand," he said, and he drew a straight vertical line upon the parchment. "The Resurrection Stone," he said, and he added a circle on top of the line. "The Cloak of Invisibility," he finished, enclosing both line and circle in a triangle, to make the symbol that so intrigued Hermione. "Together," he said, "the Deathly Hallows."
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, British Ed., pg 332
