Its actually very easy, with the diamonds, the 45-degree diamond ruler (shaped template) worked perfect for me... I cut 4" strips and it laid perfectly on it for positioning. Then make sure your bunny-ears stick out properly for the 1/4 seam. BUT STOP stitching 1/4" before the end, or you'll make up some new not-so-pleasant words (ask me how I know?!? :oops: )

For the cheater version, its just HST's, I cut 6" squares and made my HST's from those... trimmed down and what-i-got-was-what-i-got ~ didn't worry about measurements because everything was HST! For this version (monkeys) you need:
16 HST units of A/B fabrics
16 HST units of A/background
16 units of B/background
16 unuts of background/background

then you lay them out following the visual pattern... add sashing borders... voila
