    Looks to me like the bottom piece isn't wide enough. You need to make it go out beyond the two red pieces on the left and right.....

    Yes that is right the strip needs to come all the way past the tips of the last two sewn blocks you put on. . Then don't cut the angles until the next strip is sewn on. Just line the strip flat straight across lining it up with the middle block edge right sides together and pin. Sew all the way through the whole piece. Press and then you can trim the excess fabric off to a quarter inch seam and square off the hexagon.

    First,go back and trim off the edges of the red on the sides you already did,lay your ruler along the green strip and trim the ends off...then cut your next red strips to fit that...does that help?
