Default I'm wondering, what size black and white stripe should I use?

Has anyone made one of these quilts? I love the idea.... plan to get started on one for my nephew. I've decided that using a black and white stripe to make that movie film edge would be easiest if I cut a black and white stripe across the stripe. But how big do you think that stripe is? I bought some 1/4" black and 1/4" white but now I think that is too small. I started looking for 1/2" but can't find a thing. I've located a 1" stripe and looking at the picture I'm thinking that maybe that's the size I should get. So, I'm asking my quilting buddies out there, what size stripe do you think would work best?

ps: I almost forgot. The pictures I'm using are 8 1/2 x 11.
