Default QAYG in Long Strips

Just looked at a huge, beautiful quilt that was done in long, long strips. Every other strip was wide.

I have been trying to get comfortable with QAYG and a question struck me. Can a quilt be machine quilted QAYG, strip top to strip bottom, in long, wide strips joining the quilted strips with plain, narrower ones? Now that I am trying to tell you what I am mentally seeing, I wonder if the various strips can be any length and width. The operative issue is that what is quilted fits comfortably under the harp of a machine.

I have never seen a quilt done in this manner but it seems possible with a little "personalizing" to the requirements of the particular quilt.

What do you think?
