Practice, practice, practice. Pick a club for chipping and master it. I hit most every chip with my 56 and manipulate the face depending on what kind of shot I need to hit. Some people are fans of using a high iron and running the ball. It really doesn't matter as long as you know what the ball is going to do when it hits the green.
As far as putting goes, it could be a few different things. You're definitely pushing it if it's going right, but there's no way to know the reason without watching you putt. Get one of these and it will fix your stroke.

This is not ideal advice. Many good players fall into the trap of using the same club for every shot around the green. I practiced with Charles Howell III about 10 years ago, and he solely used a 60 degree for every green side shot. He had been so ingrained in Leadbetter swing ideologies, that he neglected to exercise the same diligence and exploration with regard to his short game. Every player tends to gravitate towards using a wedge they are comfortable with, as you do, however the most effective way to navigate a green is to have a plethora of options available to you when it comes to green side shots. The most common problem I see is people grabbing a 56 to fly 25-30 yards of green to get to a pin, when they should be using a 48 or 9 iron.
