Laurie, I cut before I open it up also but I don't press until I am done with the whole block! My Bernina shop owner told me that is how Kaye England taught her. ( a national quilt teadher). I tried it and LOVED IT. I square up the block after I press it.
Less stretching if you press when the block is done. Let me know what you think. :D :D
