I agree with a medium gray. another idea (if you want) is since each block has a different final edge, you could put a small black border around each block then use a medium gray for the sashing. It would give the appearance of the blocks floating. just an idea. love the blocks so far.

Lovely blocks and it will be a stunning bed cover. How about two flanges one white and additional red or grey ones and the black sashing. I know more fabric and work. Or maybe a red and grey flange.
I look forward to seeing it all put together. Anxious to see what you have in mind for the border.

Keep in mind the backing color, thread color and batting color when you make your choice. If white batting would shine through or beard on the black it may look better with black batting. Absolutely would attach the thin white or pale gray to the black before attaching the sashes to the blocks. Again, if the batting needs to be black the thin white may look better as a flange.It is a gorgeous quilt project.
