I find the fabric is too small when I flip it too, quite often. I'm getting better at flipping it to check the size before I sew it but I still end up doing it over a lot! I used to make the mistake of trimming before I flipped it over too, oops! It's surprising the amount of concentration it takes, but I usually have fun with it.

I printed this pattern and cut it all apart, then added 1/4" seam when I laid the paper pieces on the fabric. Lots of cutting and figuring but worth it. Now you know what my paper piecing is
