The triangle will seem to big until you get it all sewed together. Are you expecting the bottom or side edge of your triangle to perfectly line up with the side of your square? If so you can't do that otherwise you will lose the points of your squares once you try sewing the rows together. It has been a long while since I sewed a quilt on point but I do recall the triangle sides and bottoms for the corner units were always way bigger than my squares. You need to center the square so an equal amount of "ear" comes off either end once sewn. Hope this makes sense.
