Default I have a problem - Triple Irish chain

I have went over and over this and can't figure out what I am doing wrong. I am to the point that I believe the pattern is either wrong, or intentionally "different" than other IC's I've seen.

The pattern is found here http://www.mccallsquilting.com/patte....html?idx=8480

I worked in scrappy, reds, blues, blacks with white for my background fabric. It may be difficult to distinguish because of that.
Anyway, here is my first block.




And this is where I started putting the blocks together. See how the background (white) doesn't come out evenly? The white blocks are doubled on one end as are all the joining blocks. I absolutely do not see a way to not have that happen using this pattern. I know sometimes another set of eyes helps. Perhaps you see something I am doing wrong?
