What you could do is break the foundation into 2 parts - MA in one, and the L in the other.

This is the reality of PP and why you often see multiple foundations making up one image. It's just the nature of the technique.
The trick is to recognize when you might be piecing yourself into a hole. ;-)
And that just comes with practice. You'll soon be able to recognize it as well.

So, ifyou want the bridge, here's how I'd do it.

You start with the 3 pieces of the #9 section, and then work to your right and left.

You see how each successive piece would cover the exposed edge of the prior piece? That's how pp has to work (99.9% of the time).

The L is a separate piece.

Remember to add the 1/4 in fabric for the seam allowance on all sides of the foundations.

When they're both done, you join them together, and then put your top and bottom border on.

I have to say, I kinda like the abstract-y-ness ;-) of your original logo.
