Default A question on seams

I really didn't know what to title this but since it did have to do with the seam and it is a question

OK Here goes,
I am making a saddle blanket and I'm using a canvas type fabric cut into sort of jelly roll strips. Since it will see a bit of wear and tear on the back of a horse and under a saddle I was thinking I needed wider seams. Will it work of I increase the size of each strip double the seam size? In other words if I use a 1 inch seam the strip would be cut into 4 1/2 strips. The pattern I'm using is the tube quilt pattern in red, white, and blue. OR if you have a better pattern using ONLY 3 fabrics I'm open to trying that instead.
