Abstract: A method of producing custom grommeted drapery that minimizes the need for inventorying of materials includes printing selected patterns or designs on assembled blank drapery. The blank drapery includes all of the layers of textile joined together as a unit, include a printing side or layer and a blackout side or layer. The blank drapery also have grommet holes punched in them, before or after printing the drapery. Once a selection is made, a blank drapery is then printed using the selected design, and then grommets can be assembled into grommet holes punched through the drapery along a top edge of the drapery. The inventive process obviates the need to inventory multiple different materials that are conventionally assembled together after printing a layer of textile for finishing.

Abstract: A method of producing a high quality image on a blanket, including providing an image, a first piece of material having a substantially zero-nap upper surface configured to receive the image thereon, and a lower coupling surface. The method may include providing a second piece of material different than the first piece of material, the second piece of material having an upper coupling surface including a non-zero nap and a lower surface of a soft material. The method may include coupling the lower coupling surface of the first piece of material to the upper coupling surface of the second piece of material to form a single unit, while leaving the soft material of the second piece of material substantially exposed to an outside ambient environment, and incorporating the image within the substantially zero-nap upper surface of the first piece of material using a printing process.
