Default pressing seams open???

I'm making a baby quilt with a large pieced tractor...[36x 42]..on the front of the quilt. It calls to press open the seams, I have always pressed to the dark side in all my other quilts..

I'm having a problem with pressing the seams open and I keep burning my finger, is there some secret to pressing seams open? It is taking me so long to run my finger into the seam while I press it, sometimes it does not press it flat and have to go back and press some more and then I sometimes burn my finger..GRRRRR

anybody know of a faster way to press these seams open without burning your finger and going a little faster, it is driving me crazy.. Maybe someone has a easier way to do this.. Thanks
