When I saw your first photo here of the happy strawberry surprise block it occurred to me that doing opposite sides was the way to go. I'll give it a try.

Do you have a method for this? It shows to go around the block clockwise, but wondering if doing opposite sides first would give me a better result. Also what do you do with the pressing?
