If you select the "FG to BG (Hard-edged)" gradient and set the Repeat option in the Blend Tool's options dialog, you can draw stripes directly on the canvas. The direction of the stripes is perpendicular to your painting stroke and the thickness is determined by the length of your drawing stroke.

That is so much easier than other methods, thanks for sharing Saulgoode. =)
