Aurora Boreal de Carl Hentsch da 3 Dog Design Co.

The paper pieces fit together so precisely that even the sharp angles lined up without any gapping, which made the whole process feel almost meditative. I’ve done a few EPP projects before, but this pattern’s layout kept me engaged from start to finish.

Piecing the curve sections was much smoother than I expected, and the pre-cut paper templates hold their shape perfectly through multiple seams. This pattern really comes together beautifully.

The English paper piecing layout flows so smoothly with these pieces, and the Aurora Borealis pattern has a gentle curve to it that makes each section satisfying to fit together. I spent a rainy afternoon stitching and the points lined up better than I expected for a pattern this detailed.
