If you have the red/white dot fabric, I think it would make the black/white pop if you could incorporate it between the gray and the black/white in some way. I'd love to see your finished product. Have fun.

What would it look like if you put the black and white strips on a solid or solid looking background - like red, or teal, or lime - some fairly intense color ? Then bind it in black.
If you use the gray, I would not add any other color to it. Just bind it with black. It's sort of intriguing with the gray background - but it sort of looks like the strips are on a design wall and not 'for keeps' on the light gray.

Thanks everyone for the comments. I am posting another photo with red as background, white dot lines as another background and the red around the black/white sections (which I quite like). I didn't have enough of the red/white dot to make an impression. I agree it would be great with another bright color as background but I want to keep it red/white/black to keep with my show theme.
I might have to take a row or two of my strips into the LQS tomorrow and audition some fabrics as background.
