Take your first 2 pieces and mark the 1/4" line. Then match up the pieces and you will see where the sewing line meets. This is what they meant by 'jog'. Absolutely poorly written (it's not you, it's them!). Your template cut off the points. Normally the triangles keep their points and you would meet up the 2 pieces so the intersection is at the 1/4" sewing line and then cut off the points after pressing.
