I usually sew 2 blocks together across the 1st row, press, put it back onto the design wall and get the next row and do the same pressing the seams the opposite way. Sometimes I'll do the complete row before I go to the next row. Just depends on how I feel at the time. I'm usually working on 2-3 quilt patterns at a time so I try now to get too much on my plate. I like working on a couple at a time so I only have to go to the iron once for all 2-3 patterns. I try to do one step a day so I don't get too confused......................which is very easy for me to get.
