I, too like for those seams to line up perfectly. I do not press my seams open but if I did, I would line up the seams and stick a pin through the seam with pin going down the seam. I would sew just to the pin before removing it. I think you would have less slippage that way.

I have resorted to sewing over JUST the seam so I have less stitches to rip out if it doesn't line up and then going back and sewing the rest of the line once my seams are lined up which is taking forever. If you can't tell, I'm a perfectionist
