RILEY BLAKE - Expressions Batiks : Exprimez-vous ! - Ombré - Mauve rêveur - K10012-

The color depth in this ombre is really something—each section of the mauve shifts subtly, so cutting into it feels like unwrapping layers. It's got that nice batik hand, not too stiff, and it pressed out smooth for my quilt blocks. I already ordered a second yard because the first one disappeared i

The gradient shift from deep plum to soft lilac is so smooth it looks hand-painted, and the fabric has that lovely waxy batik feel that makes it easy to handle on the machine. I've already cut into it for a throw pillow cover and the color depth really pops against my neutral sofa.

I used this for a quilt backing and the soft hand of the batik made quilting a breeze. The gradient is subtle enough to work as a solid, yet adds that extra visual interest. Really happy with how it washed up too, no bleeding at all.
