Can you explain a little more what you are doing? What do you mean about not getting the seams to go in the right direction?
Give me a little more specifics. If you could post a pic that would be good.

I sew the seam then iron in one direction...usually to the darker side. When I sew the rows together the seams go in different direction. The top might go to left then the next row goes to right there fore it crisscrosses. Am I making sense???

Those seams will sink into the batting.
