Angry HELP!!! Why is this happening????

I have to make several hundred of these (half sq triangle strips??? i think thats what they are called) and I keep getting a "bow" on the top of the fabric like the picture below. The "bow I am referring to is near the top right corner of the strip in the first pic. Is there is anything I can do to keep this from happening??? I had to do 56~1 3/4x3" rectangles like the second picture and they turned out terrible. Notice how completely off?
I made sure to press and not iron, I set the seam, I hand pressed the steam before hitting with the iron.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
