I think that it would work well, I would cut the strips with the strip lengthwise, there is someone else that is using a stripe and if you go back you will see how some of hers look as she posted pictures a page or two or more,

I love the striped fabric with the roses - can't wait to see it cut and the cabins in the trees is awesome! Here are a few more of my blocks cut. I still cannot begin to imagine how to put these blocks together though. Going to work on the cat quilt now until Monday.
Happy cutting everyone.

I was originally doing something similar to the black, the only thing looking at it you will get some blocks that look a lot alike, I like the red but you need to make sure that your cuts are staggered so that you don't end up with a lot of pieces similar.
