Seaming together 

There is no right or wrong way to seam this together. Just lay your pieces out the way the chart shows (or the photo above) and sew them together. I used a zig sag slip stitch joining method, but truly, use what you are comfortable with.

I used Orange to seam the Blue/Green/Blue together, I used Blue to seam the Purple/Orange/Purple together. Green to seam the Orange/Purple/Orange together. And Purple to seam the Green/Blue/Green together. The photo below shows how that looks. You can do one single color, grab a 5th color, or just use the leftover yarn as you want. 

To finish it up I used the same colors I seamed the sections together with to put a single crochet border all the way around the outside.
