When it is hung horizontally like from a flagpole, the blue field is in the upper left. When it is hung vertically the blue field is also in the upper left. It is a common mistake to take the flag from its horizontal position and just rotate so the blue field is on the right.

What did the patriots of the revolution fear?

The founding fathers were constantly afraid of being captured an executed by the British. I believe Franklin said: "We must all hang together or we will all hang separately" The hang separately part refers to actually being hanged. Civilians who were patriots were openly abused by the British. Just like those who were more conservative and were loyalists were abused by Americans. Because of this many families had an American flag and a British flag. They would raise the American flag when the Americans were about and the British Flag when the British were about.
