That should be the least bulk, because pressing towards the 1/2 square triangle 4-patch will be a bulky mess.

And Bonnie did say when assembling those pesky 4-patches (gold/neutral) that there just was no good way to press them, so I was expecting some non-nested seams there.
I couldn't figure out what you meant at first. Sheesh it's so complicated to explain, but I think we are all saying the same thing...press to the red. I think.
