Default Starching problem

Ok. I admit it. I'm a failure at ironing starched fabrics. Seems like when I iron fabric before cutting, I must push it off grain, or when the fabric is damp I can't seem to get it to lay flat and straight on the ironing board especailly if all the fabric doesn't fit on top of the ironing board at once. Now this isn't rocket science. I do fine if I starch a block and then iron it, or if I starch a piece after cutting it. But defeats the purpose if starching fabric in the first place. Does anyone else have such a silly problem? How big a fabric piece do you iron at once?
