Haha, not sure if I have interpreted correctly but it sounds like you are describing how I always put pins in because I am left handed! Lol. Mine are put in the opposite of right handers. Guess that's one advantage of being left handed.

Don't know how to explain it but it was quite neat. She said it gave her more stability in keeping the fabrics from shifting.
