Oh, I miss Harry Potter. My family waited on tenterhooks for a new installment every year or two. Hedwig, the owl, swooping in to Hogwarts dining hall to deliver another important owl post. I recently sent an owl post of my own (although I did send it by Royal Mail!) to our friends who have moved to Geneva, Switzerland. I made an owl quilt for them. My husband gave me some gorgeous owly fat quarters for a Christmas gift and my best friend, Jane, gave me some fantastic African prints and some hand dyed fabric from the Minerva Arts Centre in Llandiloes. I also bought some great owl fabric when Jane and I went to the wonderfully named Aberdashery in Aberystwyth. Here are some photos I took of the quilt in one of my favourite parks, in fact, it’s the park where my husband and I had our wedding pictures taken (21 and a bit years ago!).
