The first thing that I would recommend that you do, is go to the Practice Paper Piecing Page.  When you feel comfy with paper piecing, come on back and try Buckwheat! You will need to print out two copies of  the corner unit, two copies of the second unit, and two copies of center units A & B, per block you want to make on very lightweight paper. A FQ of each fabric is fine!

After your units are pieced, join them as shown at left, using SCANT 1/4" seams. The Center A and B units will be joined first to make rows. Alternate pressing directions as you go, to keep the seams staggered.

  

The quilt is again four blocks by five, but with vertical sashings between rows. Without the sashings, this was one BUSY quilt!

Happy Quilting All!
