Arrghhhh! I made it so many times - sometimes seams 3 times - I just can't foundation piece/paper piece, so that's why I went to regular piecing with this Just Take 2 #8 block.
I'll have to take a class or something. I don't seem to have problems when the pieces are odd, but this trying to construct a traditional block just stops me cold. Ah me - any one have a tutorial for this kind of block?
Go see the great works in progress at Esther's blog (button on sidebar) or at freshly pieced. I know I'll feel better after I do that.

Don't know if this will help or not - but I do Foundation Paper Piecing backwards from most people. I posted a tutorial a while back. Check it out - it may not be the "right" way - but it works for me. ;))
