Not a dumb question at all! The pattern on homespun fabric is made by the weave of the fabric, i.e., using different colored threads to actually weave a pattern. This is unlike a printed fabric where the pattern is simply printed onto the raw fabric. So with homespun, both sides are equally "right" generally, although one side may have a more polished look than the other.
Thanks for the explanation! I had seen that term but didn't know what it meant. Your quilt turned out gorgeous ~ I would expect nothing less from you. :) Might have to go on my to-try list :)
