Northern Lights

Like curtains of color sweeping across a winter sky — electric teal, blazing magenta, deep violet, emerald, and fiery orange — Northern Lights captures the awe of the aurora borealis when the blocks come together. This stunning 61×68 quilt is as approachable as it is breathtaking, making it the perfect project for quilters of any skill level who are ready to fall in love with foundation paper piecing.

Northern Lights showcases a popular Quiltworx block that has appeared in several of our designs over the years — and for good reason.  Each block uses 2 strips of fabric, one black and one northern light inspired fabric in a variety of colors and is then paired with background fabric and straight seams, making this a beginner-friendly pattern that just glows!  Whether you’re brand new to FPP or a seasoned stitcher looking for a fun, satisfying project, Northern Lights is designed to be fast, enjoyable, and deeply rewarding.
