This quilt is beautiful! I love the thin green border around the blocks. And I think I have the same green flip flops. ; )

A question about adding sashing fabric to each block- my sashing fabric is white (white on white). The seams are hidden in this quilt's red sashing, but I'm worried that the seams would show up more with my white fabric, and would look weird... :?:
