Wonderful ORL, Girlfriend! Congratulations on finishing it. And the nine-patch is so cute. That's a terrific way to use up leftover fabrics.

Girlfriend- congratulations on both finishes! They’re lovely!

I have a quick question...I just pulled out all my 3 1/2” sections for ORL and have assembled 3 of my 50 blocks but was wondering how the finished blocks are to be pressed. I’m pressing the top and bottom row outward and the middle inward as instructed to putting the blocks together but I can’t find anywhere how to press the block after it is assembled and all the tutorials have been taken down from Bonnie’s site. Thanks.

I don't understand what you are asking, jmoore. Sorry! If you have pressed each seam as you assemble the block, what more pressing needs to be done after the last seam is pressed?

The last two joining seams of the block between the top & middle section and the middle & bottom section...it may not make any difference since I’m going to be setting the blocks with the coral parallelograms.

I see what you mean now, jmoore. The first row/second row seam is pressed toward the top of the block, and the second row/bottom row seam is pressed toward the bottom.
