ABOUT THE PATTERN

This is a patchwork-pieced pattern. The blocks are made entirely of rotary-cut squares and rectangles, and everything is sewn together using conventional patchwork techniques. No templates or paper piecing!

This pattern includes a large number of pieces, some of which are small, but the same basic patchwork piecing techniques are used throughout. The pattern includes detailed cutting directions, including charts that show all of the pieces included in each block. The instructions for making each block include both written directions and full-color diagrams for each step.

Among my patterns, Capybara Club is rated Skill Level 3 (of 5). You can read more about skill levels here.

ABOUT THE FABRIC

Capybara Club is made with Moda's Bella Solids, including many of the colors in my Elizabeth's Favorites palette. Page 2 of the pattern includes a fabric chart that shows which colors are used in which quilt sizes.

The background in my sample quilts is Bella Cool Mint. The binding is Bella Split Pea. (Both of these are new colors as of Fall 2025!)

ABOUT THE QUILTING

My samples were quilted by Emily Hoppe of So Sunny Quilts using Jess Zeiglers's Trace edge-to-edge design.
