Default Need "No Waste Flying Geese" help

I'm working on my first Flying Geese. I've opted to use the No Waste Flying Geese method adding a little extra to trim at the end to make perfect. I'm trying to make finished 5 x 10 geese. According to the charts I find, my Geese squares should be 11 3/4 square (11 1/4 + 1/2 extra) and my Sky squares should be 6 1/4 square (5 7/8 + 3/8 extra). The problem is, when I lay these out as instructed to mark the cutting and sewing lines, it looks like the sky squares don't line up as they should. When I measure the diagonal from corner to corner on the large square it doesn't go through the points on the smaller squares. I've measured and re-measured my squares and they are correct.

-- Is it supposed to look like this?
-- Are my measurements off?

Any help is appreciated!
