The little dips have more to do with the folding than the cutting.

When the directions say to fold selvage to selvage - I fold it so there are no diagonal folds/creases/pulls in the fabric - so sometimes the ends are very uneven. Washing frequently lets fabric "relax" a bit and do its own thing. Sometimes fabric gets skewed while being processed.
