I really do like your quilt, too (and the inspector)! Seeing this, I would be more likely to use the term 'gradiated fabric". Ombre to me means a sandy, tan, desert-like color. Thanks for sharing your picture. It really helped!

I think ombre in a traditional pieced quilt adds a lot of nice movement.

Even Miss Kitty thinks so. i recently purchased some to use as color gradated (sp?) fabrics in paper pieced flowers. |

Ombre is another word for "graduated"....
I bought a tone of them from Sew batiks....can't wait to see what I do with them! http://www.sewbatik.com/SearchResult...CategoryID=121 |
Thanks to all of you, I now know that Ombre means a shaded fabric and umber means tan. Plus, I shouldn't be afraid to use ombre fabric in a quilt although it may cost a bit more. You all are a great source of knowledge and thanks to all of you who post here. This is a great resource and I learn so much from it.

I also have never heard of this,Ombre befor.Have I been sleeping or maybe locked in my sewing room.
Please explain to me what this is. Thanks |
