I just zoomed in on your cutwork & I think that might be where the issue lies. With this type of design, you have to be sure to find the repeat in the fabric & line your template up with the exact same place on the repeat every single time. It is insanely difficult to do on a busy fabric, but that's the trick. It's obvious even on the cut pieces in the middle, but where it's really clear is on the outermost design. The leaves should be the same exact leaves in each section to pull off the design. Unfortunately, the only suggestion I have other than re-cutting your fabric is to just add a small bit of applique in the center -- maybe cut out a small leaf or flower from any remnant you have & make it like a broderie perse design.

Here's a tutorial from Jinny Beyer about how to cut the pieces out for this type of design:
