Default Pressing Strip Sets

I have started another quilt, one that has many strip sets (3 strips each 1.5")....all needing pressed and then cut down to size, either 6.5" or 1.5"....my question is how exactly do you press them (adding spray starch) and keep them straight?....mine always seem to end up with bows in them, requiring me to either repress, or cut a few sections, then straighten against the line again.....HELP ME!....if I thought I could add a straight line to my ironing board without causing more problems I would....LOL....I can see an ink/marker line that transfers to the fabric, not a good scenario(:.....what tips or hints can you share with me?
