Out to Lunch? Organize the Library? Off to London? Oval Tipped Lace? Orange Tiled Laundry? Oxyclean The Linen? Our True Love? Only the Lonely? Open the Lever? Occupational Therapy Lady? Odd Trapping Lure? Observe Top Level?
Oinks too Loud? Often the Last? Original Thread Line? Overlap the Length? Outsmart the Lizard? Override the Legend?

I'm sorry I can't help you out, I have no idea what that means. I hate abbrevations on patterns like that, I think too many people including designers are just getting LAZY, they are so engrossed in the texting, twittering and all, that they think everyone else does this. I do neither, and hate for people to use abbreviations when they could just as easily print the meaning out or orally say it. This high tech world we now live in is truly ruining our children in school. I am a retired First Grade teacher and retired in 2004. A few years before retirement, our brilliant state legislators and educators decided that Handwriting and Spelling were no long necessary as part of the curriculum, how sad. When tutoring after retirement, many of my 4th and 5th grade students did not even know how to write their name or write anything else. They could print whatever they wanted, but could not write it in cursive handwriting. So many could not spell anything either. I suppose Math and Reading will be next. Sorry will not step down from my "Soap Box."
Oh, about the original question. I agree their should be a spot for explanation of abbreviations.

What is a "Garmin" ??? My OTL guess - off the length-- If the outside is folded down over the lining. the lining would be cut shorter? ..if it is a piece to be used to make handles..that would be about right.. I sometimes wonder what other letters mean. makes for lots of puzzles..(puzzles are supposed to wardoffalsheimers

A Garmin is a Global Positioning System. Love our Garmin-saved us on many occasions. Nope, neither one of us have those fancy shmancy phones that do everything except wash out your underwear for you.
For the purse pattern and the OTL, I would think if you would have given the name of the purse, designer, or site where you found the pattern, you may have had your answer within the first few posts. Many of us have purse patterns and many of us love perusing the web and finding stuff out. Happy to help if you can give us more info. Not all patterns are written clear-cut.

Thank you for straightening out my muddled answer to GPS. I came in to do that this morning to see you already told everyone what GPS actually stands for, lol!
