As for the size, you would just end up with wider "cording" to sew together and more of your fabric would show. Have you looked at any of the you tube videos to see what I am talking about? Those might give you an idea of what wider strips could look like. If you have stash, it would be an excellent way to use some up, especially those pieces that may you say......."good grief , what was I thinking and what can I do with this now" fabric. I have some more of that kind in my stash so I am plotting my next rug.
I say go for it......

Thanks Murphy ... yes, I am familiar with the process and look, and have seen youtube videos. However, I have not seen any that have used wider strips. So if you have a link to an example or two, I'd appreciate it. My plan is for it to be in the master bath, with an appropriate anti-skid underneath.
