Yours turn out very nice!
What I found that helped me get the smaller blocked lined up right was instead of folding the center square in half to form a rectangle, I folded it into fourths and pressed it then unfolded it once, this way I had a clear mark of where the sides should fold when I went to open it up ! It really helped to have a visual mark of where I needed to open !
