Preventing warp and tension distortion in framed textiles Most framed textiles do not distort immediately. The problems usually develop slowly through uneven tension, gravity stress, improper support systems, and environmental movement over time. Large textiles, heirloom fabrics, woven artwork, and delicate needlework continuously react to mounting pressure and structural imbalance inside the frame. Without proper preservation methods, textiles can gradually warp, pull unevenly, lose dimensional stability, and permanently distort their original shape. What proper textile preservation systems help prevent: • uneven fabric tension across mounting zones • long-term warp and sagging distortion • structural stress on delicate fibers and stitching • loss of shape, spacing, and dimensional texture At Picture Worth Custom Framing, textile framing is approached as long-term preservation — not simple decorative mounting. Balanced support systems, controlled spacing, and archival textile methods help maintain both structural stability and visual presentation quality over time. Because once woven fibers and thread structure permanently distort, the original craftsmanship is often impossible to fully restore.
