I'm making Two Gray Hills:

The quilt emulates an old Navajo weaving. The pattern-maker was ingenious in designing the quilt as series of pieced strips, which further gives it the feeling of a weaving. Notice in the photo that the pieced strips run vertically.
I'm trying to figure out which would be better: cutting the length of the strip pieces on the cross grain (more stretchy) or straight grain (more stable)? All the strips are 1" wide (finished).
BTW, I'm going to try paper piecing this. I have some software from my fashion sewing days which allowed me to work up each individual strip pattern and I've printed all 22 of them on a large plotter (roll of paper).
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
