To be technical:
mot·tled (mtld)
adj.
Spotted or blotched with different shades or colors.

Some people call these "blenders" too.

Here are some pictures!

(scroll down a teeny bit to see the fabrics)

Hope this helps!

:D

Sometimes there is a little design printed on the fabric too...in the same tones.
