<hr/>
{!! Form::file('image',["class"=>"filestyle","data-buttonText"=>"select image","data-input"=>"false"]) !!}

 @foreach($sections as $section)
  <div class="col-md-3">

There is one definite problem in your View code: You use $section after you end your @foreach block that defines it, for example here:

@foreach($sections as $section)
  ...
@endforeach
...
<div class="row">
 <div class="col-md-4">
  <div class="thumbnail">
   {!! Form::open(["url"=>"sections/$section->id","method" => "patch"]) !!}
------------------------------------^^^^^^^^

I suspect you intended to place the <div class="row"> blocks inside your @foreach block.
