no Y seam... you start with the square in the corner, add the two green triangles to each side and then work your way to the center block. Then do the next section starting with the square and working inwards, and sew this section to the center block.

The two side pieces are sewn separately the same way, and then add the large triangles to them. Sew these 3 separate pieces together.

Basically you are piecing it in thirds :wink:
