in blocks like this, the two sides mirror each other. although the sides look exactly the same, they are actually exact opposites.

the problem is that the templates for both sides also look exactly the same. as you have discovered, they are not.

you have somehow ended up with the wrong number of lefts and rights. the good news is that all you have to do is figure out how many you need of each and cut some more.

if you need all of the new ones to face in the same direction, then stack all of your fabrics right side up, make sure you have the template facing correctly, and then cut.

you can use the same template to cut both sides at once if you stack your fabric in pairs that are wrong sides together.
