Personally I also trace out the pattern rather than cutting the pattern tissue, since I don't know if I've got the right size/might want to make it for someone else later (/just can't bear to ruin a thing :P). It takes a bit/a lot of extra time but for all of my makes that have turned out okay I've wanted to go back to the pattern and trace something differently (grading between sizes or alternative necklines, sleeve lengths, what-have-yous) and then make another version.
Second the recommendation to pre-wash and to press constantly. Oh and looking up tutorials if any step is confusing! There are tonnes, both written/blogs and videos.
