It is actually English Paper Piecing. You cut squares of fabric and form the squares of fabric around the paper hexigon. Fold over the excess fabric to the back side of the paper hexigon and baste through the fabric and paper. Then you whip stitch one hexigon to another. When one flower is completed you take the basting stitches out and remove the paper hexigons. It is really simple. There are many free tutorials out there - I didn't purchase a pattern. I got a free pattern and instructions from the Connectingthreads.com web site. They are addicting to make. No Y seams at all. Simple.
