I like them. I actually like the narrower ones a little better, but I like motion and "busy" patterns. I would use all your greens - you will be surprised how well they work together when they are all in a quilt. For maximum effect you may need to get a few more lights and darks for higher contrast. As to the "bubble" you can heavily starch, but also you may want to use a dual feed or walking foot to help feed the top and bottom fabrics evenly - especially since they are bias.

I just finished a quilt last month that had alot of bias edges. I asked for recommendations and several people mentioned that in addition to using starch be very careful about ironing pieces because that can stretch them. I tend to get carried away with ironing and need to concentrate on pressing, not ironing.
