Cherry Hatch Laminations

Just finished a second set of hatch laminations with 1/8 cherry. When I compared them to the first set they do not match up when lined up on top of each other. Is this typical when doing laminations or should I try and redo another set? I did everything the same. Pre bend the 1/8 veneers with boiling water and let dry on the jig for a day. Then epoxy the laminations together and let set for a day. Any input appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve
