The Point Paper Art Company

The Art Behind Textile Point Paper

Before the advent of computer-aided design (CAD), craftsmen translated drawings of woven textile patterns onto special graph paper called point papers. These detailed point paper drawings were then read by textile technicians who cut the weaving instruction cards placed onto the weaving looms.
To delight the curious, the Point Paper Art Company selects designs from the archive collection to breathe new life into this historical textile craft. They bring point paper drawing and it’s beautiful art from textile history in the form of wall art and gift items to everyone.
