Loom-to-Life Care & Restoration

Preserving cherished heirlooms for generations to come.

Restoring the Blankets That Hold Your Story

We believe a fine textile should last a lifetime. To ensure your beloved pieces continue to provide warmth for generations, we operate a dedicated “blanket hospital” right here in our Maine studio. Whether your heirloom needs a seasonal refresh or a careful mend, our artisans treat every piece with the same attention to detail that went into its original weaving.

Professional Cleaning & Finishing

If your blanket needs a professional refresh, our gentle, multi-step process is designed to restore its natural beauty and loft. If your blanket needs a professional refresh, our gentle, multi-step process is designed to restore its natural beauty and loft.

The Process

Each piece receives a gentle hand wash, is blocked on our antique lace frames to maintain its shape, includes up to one hour of expert de-pilling, and concludes with a light pressing.

Cleaning Prices

Baby blankets $47.50
Wraps and scarves $47.50
Throws $95.00
Summer-weight blankets $142.50
Winter-weight blankets $190.00

Please note: While our process is thorough, our gentle methods may not be able to remove deep or set-in stains.

Meticulous Repair & Restoration Services

From everyday wear to significant damage, our team restores each textile with patience and precision. Holes are rewoven by hand—thread by thread—to return strength and continuity to the cloth. We take immense pride in having restored pieces from the earliest days of our company, some over thirty years old.

Common issues we address:

  • Holes, tears, and snags
  • Moth damage
  • Surface thinning and general signs of aging

The Process

All items must be cleaned by our team before repair work begins. Once cleaned, we will inspect the damage and email you a personalized quote before proceeding.

Repair & Restoration Prices

Repairs begin at $95 per hour (in addition to the cleaning fee).

A Note on Safety

For the well-being of our craftspeople, we cannot accept textiles that have been stored with mothballs. The chemicals used are toxic and require specialized handling beyond our studio’s capabilities.

A Continuing Story

Each piece we restore carries its history forward—renewed, cared for, and ready for years of continued use.
