Sometimes it's even hard to tell which is the right side, which is the wrong side to start with. I was told to look at the selvage, and the pin marks should be UP on the right side. Sometimes that's even hard to tell. I recently worked with a metalic lace, boy, that was hard! I flipped back & forth, trying to match by the shinyness, and after I sewed the seams, it didn't look right; so I ripped, and ripped and ripped. sigh! I am hoping that they are all right, now. lol

I could have used this tip many times. Thanks

Great idea - thanks!

good idea. I have troubles sometimes it hard to determine which is right.

great idea!

In my first quilting class, our instructor told us to put the piece on your leg and flip it over. It works! For some reason (probably the different perspective and lighting) it's easier to pick the right side. I've used that trick several times. It works sitting or standing. Maybe it'll work for you!

Thanks for the tip. Never thought about a wrong side or a right side to a tonal white.

This is an excellent hint and I could have used it last week. I was sewing at night and the next morn I had to rip out some squares of white that I put in wrong. Thanks loads and I will use this soon.

Love that tip thanks. joyce j

I also use this when I'm using black fabric , and a chalk pencil works great too!
