Why are there 7 red stripes and 6 white stripes on the American flag?

The red and white had significance, that I don't recall. But from a purely aestetic point of view, the red on the outside helps frame the flag. If the flag had 7 White stripes then that would mean the White would be on the top and bottom and this would not stand out on a bright day and would be virtually invisible.
