Like JanRN and QuiltE I also PP'd the Farmers Wife and Pony Club quilts, 201 blocks in total (I think) I always remove the paper when I finish a block and if I need to align seams that maybe on an angle I will draw my 1/4 inch seam line on the fabric. I also remove the paper if I have to sew sections together as I loathe removing the paper from within a seam line. If you press well and use a little starch on your blocks you should not have any distortion but if you are worried you can sew a small line of stitched around the block. Hope this helps and I love your pattern..

I wait until everything's sewn together.

I don't remove the paper until the quilt is ready to sandwich.

I press & trim the block with the paper on it (no steam as it may shrink the paper) Then once the block is stitched into the quilt top I remove the paper. (I use a 1.5 length stitch & regular paper, just fold along perforations & the paper is easy to remove) The stay stitching on the quilt top edge keeps the blocks along the edge that are paper pieced from getting stretched.

The only time I would leave the paper on a block is if I have to join it to another block and match the seams of each. If you're going to sash the block, or if the block doesn't have matching seams ... I would remove the paper when the block is done and store the block flat.

It was interesting to read all the suggestions - I have a paper pieced project to do at some point so enjoy all the tips and tricks. Sounds like no set rules but personal preference.
