This is perfect! Forget what I said about not making 2 rectangles - I think we were talking about different things/different steps. Make your long pieces, cut and lay them out will work great (I hope you have a *big* floor area to work in
I would cut as you go - don't cut all your strips and then lay them out. Do it a bit at a time so that you can cut different widths to make the design what you want as you go, rather than having to make it work with random cuts you made up front. Or, try to sketch it out first, so you have an idea how many wide, medium, and narrow strips you are going to want.
