Tell me if you think this will work -

Can I sew in a folded flannel sashing strip when I stitch the two blocks together to cover the seam on the fleece side?

I'm guessing it will have to be hand stitched down if I use this method.

Or -

Can I use a flannel sashing strip a little wider than the front sashing (in order to have a bit more folded under on the side not stitched into the seam) and top stitch like the SID where the sashing on top joins the block itself?

This would seemingly eliminate hand stitching but could potentially require more ripping out and restitching.

Do either of these sound actually workable on a queen sized quilt? BTW I will wash and dry the flannel before cutting.
