Is my crown molding upside down? Need help!

After offering to help my niece with re-trimming her house with new Base and Case, her husband decided to go ahead and do it himself with no help.
He installed the Casing with the thinner edge out. The Baseboards were proud of the casing. Of course, he had the entire house cased before noticing the problem.

His solution was to cut bevels on the ends of the baseboards to match at the casing. Looks like crap, but, whatever.

Your Cove looks as good as the wife thinks it does. Carry on.
