Thank you everybody for your enthusiasm and kind words!

GeeGee and Jillaine, I paper pieced the blocks so the measurement isn't perfect for regular pieicing. The fatter strips are a finished size of 1" and the thinner ones are just finished at about 11/16". You could probably do it just fine if you used 1" and 3/4" strips.

(Those are the FINISHED sizes - When cutting, don't forget to add 1/4" on both sides to those measurements!)
