    I am new to miniature quilts using paper piecing... my instructions say to reverse the pattern... mmmmm what is the best way to do that....just sew on the opposite side... will that do it... I probably sound pretty stupid... thanks in advance for the help.

    oh.. I know what your issue is with the "reverse the pattern"

    You're right, you do sew on the opposite side of the paper, but when you flip the finished block it's reversed of how it's sewn.

    Take the pattern to a photocopy shop or machine, and mirror the image. Then print/copy it and paper piece as normal.
