Harry Potter

I have been active in the Harry Potter fandom for many years, and have shared Harry Potter crafts and tutorials and patterns on my personal website since approximately 2002/2003 as well as many other places around the web. This page will point you to all of my HP-related patterns, tutorials, crafts and recipes.

HP Snitch

Since 2005, I have designed well over 150 Harry Potter paper pieced patterns, as well as patterns for a number of my other favorite fandoms. You can now find all of my Harry Potter patterns, as well as those of many other talented designers, archived on Fandom In Stitches, my fandom quilting website. Each of my patterns will include my name, Jennifer Ofenstein. You can find a text list of all my Harry Potter Patterns hosted on Fandom In Stitches at the bottom of this page.

Harry Potter Quilt

My Magical Lens, my first Harry Potter quilt, completed in 2007. This is the quilt that started it all!

The Project of Doom was a Harry Potter Block of the Week that took place between January and August 2011. This is a comprehensive archive of all of the patterns that were posted during that time, including fabric requirements and suggested layouts.

All patterns were designed by Jennifer Ofenstein of Sewhooked and are shared for personal and non-profit use only.

Thank you for respecting my decisions on this and please do not email asking me if I will make a quilt for you.

    The letter “x” is actually the letter “w” when I click on it. ‘Sew’ glad to find another H/P fan.

  2. October 16, 2011 22:18

    Dear friend, I tried to download the “S’, “H”, “O” and “N” but comes up with “File not found” Trying to spell my sons name “SHELDON” please help?

    • October 17, 2011 07:24

      Hi Annie, I have it all sorted out now. Would you believe it was the difference between S and s? I’ve checked every letter now and all patterns are loading just fine! I hope you share a photo of what you’re working on when you’re done!

      Thanks for letting me know about the error. I’d much rather have it corrected than let it linger. :)

    I’m getting ready to start The Project of Doom quilt with my best friend. I’m excited! (And nervous, but mostly excited!) Thanks so much for sharing this awesome project!

    • October 18, 2011 10:15

      You are so welcome! My own PoD is being quilted right now…I’m so excited that it will be a complete quilt soon! Have fun stitching with your best friend!

    It looked like you were having so much fun with the PODproject that I have now started out. Are you still interested in a credit-block? I am not able to find the paperpiecing pattern for it, it keeps telling me it’s redirecting, but nothing happens. And I would like to show just a litte of the gratitude I feel about the patterns, I am truly enjoying myself. Thank you!

    • October 27, 2011 13:17

      Hi, and welcome! I had a great time with the PoD and I’m always happy to hear when new quilters are joining in! I would love to have your extra credit block. I’m collecting through Dec. 1.

      I’ve sorted out the links, but to make it easier, you can find it here:

      Happy stitching!

    Thank you for your help, but I simply cant get the links to work. They show “wordpress.com” for a short while and then jump back. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    • October 28, 2011 07:32

      I’m so sorry that it keeps not working for you. I’m trying it from my end with no troubles. If you’ll email me – sewhooked@gmail.com, and let me know if you prefer the paper pieced version or the rotary cut version, I’ll send you the instructions.

    I would like to buy 1 to 2 yards of blue Harry Potter fabric. Please tell me how much and how to obtain it. Thank you, Bonnie

    • October 29, 2011 13:05

      Hi Bonnie,

      Harry Potter fabric has not been available for sale since 2003, when it went out of print. Your best bet is to check on ebay or etsy. You can sometimes find it there.

      Good luck!

    This is probably going to sound like an insane question…but I love to sew by hand. Is there any way to do this via hand sewing instead of using a machine? Do you know of anyone who has done this? Thank you so much for your help and videos! I recently subscribed to your Youtube link. I love your videos!!!

    • October 30, 2011 09:40

      Believe it or not, it’s completely doable! I knew a student that did all her paper piecing by hand so she could stitch while she was in class. All of her blocks looked great, as did her finished projects, so I’m sure you can do it.

      Good luck…let me know how you do!

    Hi, I would like to find a Harry Potter surgeon’s cap or get one made. Can you do that?

    • November 11, 2011 08:12

      No, I’m sorry, but I don’t make surgeon’s caps. You might try searching on etsy. Many of the sellers will take requests.

      http://www.etsy.com

      Good luck finding what you need!

    Jen, may I ask you a question please? I was trying to sew the monster book, I sewed the pieces, but they are way too bulky! How did you get your monster book looking so flat where as mine looks pregnant lol…help please?

    • November 23, 2011 16:36

      Well, lots of ironing and I trimmed the seam allowances in layers to help the not be quite so bulky. Good luck!

    Wonderful. Thank you Jennifer for the Harry Potter Project of Doom. I just finished it. I was consumed with making these blocks over the past several months. How generous of you to share this fantastic project.

    • July 16, 2012 22:46

      I’m thrilled that you enjoyed it so much. It means a lot to me to be able to give back to the fans of my favorite story! :)

    Hi Jennifer!
    My name is Hannah. I am 14 and am starting to make this quilt with my mom, as a mother-daughter project. We have 2 *gasp* sewing machines, so we can work at the same time, or during any free time we have. If any of the women out there are reading this, and you have a child my age, try to make a quilt with your child; it can really bring you and your child together!!! Thanks for putting this out there Jen; you are amazing!!!!

    • July 21, 2012 07:35

      Hi Hannah,

      Thanks so much for sharing! I really hope you and your mom will post photos…I love pictures! I like to sew and craft with my kids, too. ;)

    Hi, Jennifer. I just started making quilts, and am a HUGE HP fan and discovered all your wonderful quilt pieces. I was most excited about the alphabet designs, so I could add my name in HP letters to a bag I have, but I can’t seem to find the designs ANYWHERE! Every link I click on for them takes me to a link that is just a blank page. Have they been removed for some reason? Is there some link to them I am missing? Thanks for your help.

    P. S. I actually live right down the street from the Honey Bee quilt shop, and have shopped there from time to time, I might have to check out your classes sometime. =D

      Hi Jessica,

      I’m so sorry about that! Fandom In Stitches is a Blogger website and they have been updated a bunch of stuff and it’s killed a ton of my links.

      Click here and you’ll get just where you need to go.

      Hope to see you around!

      Jennifer

        Yay! Thanks so much! Their entire Harry Potter link goes to nothing, but luckily I found your page here and could get all the designs! Thanks again.

        • August 6, 2012 14:46

          I’ve got that link working again now, so it’ll be easy peasy from now on. There are quite a lot more patterns on that HP page than I have listed here. :)

            I just saw that! I might have to make an entire room with walls made of Harry Potter quilts! Who can decide which ones to make?

            • August 6, 2012 14:52

              I’m a terrible person to ask, because I’ve made most of them, lol! I have two quilts and have made a ton of bags and wall hangings. There’s always room for more Potter!

  19. August 11, 2012 14:42

    OMG I just saw this on GeekCrafts and I’m in love with this quilt! Super awesome :)

    What size are these blocks?

    • September 18, 2012 13:29

      They vary in size. The Project of Doom blocks are 10″ and most of the other blocks are 5″. Generally, it will say in the pattern itself or in the file name.

    Went to a quilt show today. Two of your Harry Potter (pattern) quilts were in the show. My friend told be where to find you cause I am a huge HP fan. Must sew. Thanks for sharing your amazing talent.

    • September 30, 2012 17:15

      That’s great to hear! Did you happen to see who made the quilts? I’m always curious when other quilters are showing their quilts made from my patterns. :)

  22. October 3, 2012 11:22

    Olá Jennifer, parabéns pelos seus trabalhos, obrigada por disponibilizar os gráficos. Estou fazendo uma bolsa prá ir à Orlando, beijos

    Thank you soooo much for creating the HP blocks. My nephew, a college freshman, is a tremendous HP fan. This year for Christmas, he requested a sleep mask because there is a streetlight outside his dorm window and I thought this was a great opportunity to make him a gift. Wanting to go a step farther, I remembered seeing Harry’s glasses on one of your blocks so I downloaded the pattern and adapted the sleep mask pattern to fit around it. LOL Of course, that made me think that pillowcases would be a great complimentary gift so I also downloaded Harry’s crest and put that on one of the pillowcases. I would love to post a photo of how they turned out (and I am really pleased), but I can’t figure out how to post a photo here. Next week (after Christmas), I’ll post a photo on my Facebook page. Please drop by and look. Thanks to you, my nephew is going to think I’m brilliant! LOL
