What is ombre printing?

Ombre is a stripe or pattern with gradual shading and blending from one color to another. In fact, the word ombre itself comes from French and means shading. A designer or artist can create an ombre using most textile techniques, including knitting, weaving, printing, and dyeing.

In the early 1800s, ombre first appeared in printed designs on wallpaper by the Zuber company. These designs often used the ombre in a solid area of a large design, for example, the ground of a floral pattern. Other times, the ombre stood alone as a stripe. Its popularity was short-lived. By the mid-19th century, the effect fell out of fashion. Despite their beauty, they were too expensive to produce. For now, the ombre color is also used in fabric, the main reason to use ombre is to add subtlety to quilts as sections of flat solid colours can be too stark and boring.
