I'm trying to decide if recreating this is insane or not

Inspiration
I'm trying to decide if recreating this is insane or not by kelp!.
The clipping is from a somewhat recent Domino magazine. I heart the look of this pillow, and I was thinking about creating the stripes myself with the linen and blue+orange fabrics. But man, it's going to be a ton of work. There's only a couple of pieces that are cut to be the same size.

Is it possible that this is just a bunch of strips sewn into a square, then cut up and reassembled?

I don't think so, but creating long strips and then slicing them into the shapes that I need is an excellent, timesaving idea!

Or! Will my pillow self-destruct if I don't backstitch all the edges? I hope not.

Nope. As long as you've got a perpendicular seam, you never have to worry about backstitching.
