PictureWeave and Photo Weave Products

Tapestries have been woven with life scenes since the starting of woven fabric. Some of the earliest known examples were of Battle Fields depicting battles and victories of war. The early weaving's were limited in their potential by the skill of the weaver and the availability of dyed fabric of suitable color and quality. Later weavings were limited by the fabric availability and the complexity of the looms used. Today distinct scenes are woven into the fabric depicting gorgeous scenes limited only by the imagination of the weaver. With contemporary technology, looms can be set up to weave any pattern from a picture and the resulting woven fabric will be an exact replica of the photograph, together with the background color and all the colors of the spectrum shown in the photograph.

The contemporary technology used today involves the use of a scanner to read the photo and copy to a computer. Software is used to tell the loom which color of thread to use etc.

The resulting woven image is an exact copy of the photo which was scanned. It uses the same technology as sewing machines that sew using a computer program. The resulting products are life like. They make you wonder why we mortal humans are needed in the process. Unlike products artificial by applying the color to the fabric after weaving, these products will never fade or change texture because the scene you see is woven in with the standard color thread. And very appropriately these manufacturers will not originate inappropriate images on their products as do some manufacturers of cheap t-shirts and other items.

PictureWeave (a registered trademark of Pure Country weavers), and some other weavers, are manufacturing products such as Tote-Bags, Pillows, Throws and Wall Hangings from photo's, resulting in very personalized products. Some of the common themes are weddings, anniversaries, house reunions, school reunions, birthdays, beloved pets and the list goes on. They are very beloved as gifts for any occasion.

The only limitation in the potential of the products woven is the potential of the photo used. Always pick a photo with good focus and high contrast. A white field on a white background will not furnish the best image, nor will a dark image on a dark background. Ordinarily the manufacturer will only do limited editing, so check the photo to be sure it projects the final image you want woven. What you see is what you will get in the final product. Photos with a final 8x10 proportion are best.

For digital photographs, you should make sure the photo is of reasonably high resolution, as a photo that is too small will supervene in a low resolution weaving. A minimum of 1280x960 pixels, or practically 1 mega pixel is suggested.

Always remember any picture taken by a pro photographer cannot be reproduced without permission from the photographer because of copy rights.

Have one woven and you will appreciate and enjoy the contemporary technology at work.
