the Artistic Weave Shop

Step 1: Cleaning

Always get your garment dry cleaned first!

We require all clothing coming into the shop to be dry cleaned, this serves two purposes. It keeps the other customers clothes at the shop safe, and more importantly for you it will reveal any further damage to know if it’s worth getting your garment repaired.

Step 2: Estimate

Looking it over with our trained eyes.

After sending your clothes to us we can give you a more exact estimate of what it will cost to restore them. Sometimes after dry cleaning the number of holes will double, we’re in your corner though, to help you decide if it’s worth the investment.

Step 3: Repair

Our repairs will keep you looking good!

We have several weaving methods to keep your garments in shape; our French weave for small holes where we replace each thread individually, the Over weave is for larger holes where we weave a piece of fabric over it, and last but not least we also re-knit sweaters and of course all of these methods are always done by hand.

The Artistic Weave shop came to Wichita in 1948 from Tulsa Oklahoma. We’ve been a family owned business since 1952. The second generation of reweavers are in the shop now and have been repairing garments for over 35 years. We offer pick up and delivery service in Wichita KS through several fashion boutiques, men’s clothiers, and dry cleaners. We also continue to provide mail orders. We look forward to repairing your favorite garments and getting you looking your best!

Not all weaves are invisible

We will let you know when work will show and also provide you with samples of what it might look like finished so you can make the smart decision to repair it or not.

Save the date

Depending on the time of year the wait for repairs have been known to be up to 10 weeks. With our free estimates we’ll let you know when you can expect your garment to be ready. If it is an emergency we can discuss a rush fee.

Awesome concierge service

Our customer service is second only to the quality of our reweaving. We will provide you with the estimate in the format you find most useful. Some of our customers no longer want an estimate, they trust our judgement, others we go over each garment with them hole by hole. To continue this tradition we are now providing complimentary video estimates where we go over what will be done with your clothes.

Pest Expertise
Know your enemy.
There are several pests that eat wool. There is the carpet beetle, clothing moths, silverfish, and mice. We have years of experience dealing with all of them.
Dry Cleaning
Clean what goes into your closet.
We recommend dry cleaning your garments, if you get food on them, walk through a mud puddle, or once a year if you have worn them or not, and anything new or used you put into your closet be sure to clean it.
Protect your closet
Store your clothes properly.
Dry cleaning protects wool from insects. Keep storage areas clean and dust free. Store your woolens carefully, we store ours air tight, ziplock bags for sweaters.
Expert Knowledge
Let us pass on our years of experience to you
It may be bad for our business but we have always tried to pass on our knowledge about caring for your garments. Your fashions are beautiful and will last a long time if you know how to take care of them.

For 3 years, Marsha at the Artistic Weave Shop has been serving customer's at Rutledge's in Colorado Springs. The Artistic Weave Shop has repaired everything from cashmere sweaters,to wool sport coats, to suit trousers. By using a method that very few are able to do, Marsha matches the material and actually reweaves the fabric leaving it looking as if nothing ever happened to it. This requires a great level of skill and attention to detail and is highly preferable to conventional methods of repairing holes or tears in fine garments as they leave remnants from the repair. Moth holes, trouser tears, worn suit jackets, no worries, Artistic Weavers has you covered! Thank you for all of your incredible work Marsha! our customer's truly appreciate it!

Rutledge's

in Colorado Springs

Marsha is a true artisan in a disappearing art. The work she produces is better described as restoration then repairs. The results are largely invisible and will amaze you. You will not be disappointed.
