How a Luster Loft® Blanket Is Made: The Step-by-Step Art of Crafting a Quality Fleece Blanket
At American Blanket Company, every Luster Loft® Blanket is made with one goal in mind: to create the softest, warmest, longest-lasting fleece blanket possible.
Our Luster Loft Fleece Blankets are known for their luxurious softness, non-shedding performance, no-pill construction, high warmth-to-weight ratio, and lifetime guarantee. Each blanket is sewn with care in Fall River, Massachusetts, using premium global materials.
Here is the step-by-step process behind the art of making a quality Luster Loft Blanket.
Step 1: Sourcing the Finest Blanket Fabrics
A great blanket begins with great fabric.
For Luster Loft, we carefully select premium polyester yarns, then we carefully knit the fabric. Our fabric then goes through a multi step brushing and shearing process. Our process creates a softness, warmth, durability, and long-term comfort not found in other pile fabrics. The fabric must feel silky, plush, and soothing while also performing through years of use and repeated washing.
This is where the quality begins. Before a blanket is ever cut or sewn, the fabric must meet the standards expected from one of the softest fleece blankets made in America.
Step 2: Inspecting and Hand Cutting Each Blanket
Every Luster Loft Blanket is inspected and cut one blanket at a time.
Instead of rushing through mass production, our team carefully checks the fabric and hand cuts each blanket to help ensure straight edges, accurate sizing, and a clean finished appearance.
This extra attention matters. Proper cutting helps create a blanket that lays beautifully on a bed, folds neatly, and feels finished from edge to edge.
Step 3: Hem Stitching with a Five-Thread Cover Stitch
The hem is one of the most important parts of a quality fleece blanket.
Each Luster Loft Blanket is finished with a five-thread top and bottom cover stitch. This premium stitch helps secure the blanket edge while creating a clean, polished finish.
A strong hem is essential for a blanket that will be washed, used, loved, and enjoyed for years. This is one of the reasons Luster Loft Blankets are built for a lifetime of comfort.
Step 4: Back-Tacking Every Corner for Added Durability
Corners are one of the most vulnerable areas on any blanket.
That is why each Luster Loft Blanket is back-tacked at every corner for added durability. This reinforcement helps secure the stitching at the points that experience the most stress during daily use, laundering, folding, and handling.
It is a small detail, but it plays a big role in helping create a durable fleece blanket that stands up to everyday life.
Step 5: Vacuuming Loose Fibers for a Clean Finish
Before final inspection, each blanket is vacuumed to remove loose fibers, lint, and stray threads.
This step helps ensure your blanket arrives clean, fresh, and ready to use. It also reflects one of the most important qualities of Luster Loft: its non-shedding, no-pill performance.
Customers love that Luster Loft is soft and cozy without leaving behind unwanted fuzz on clothing, furniture, or bedding.
Step 6: Human Inspection, Hand Folding, and Gift-Ready Packaging
Every Luster Loft Blanket is inspected by human eyes before it leaves our facility.
Our team looks for flaws in the fabric, stitching, sizing, finish, and overall appearance. Only blankets that meet our quality standards are folded by hand and placed in a fine presentation box for shipping.
Many Luster Loft Blankets are also available with gift boxing, ribbon, and tag options, making them a thoughtful choice for birthdays, weddings, holidays, corporate gifts, and everyday comfort.
Step 7: Final Order Review Before Shipping
Before an order leaves American Blanket Company, it is carefully reviewed one final time.
Our team checks the blanket style, size, color, quantity, personalization details when applicable, and shipping information to help ensure every customer receives the blanket they ordered.
This final review is part of our commitment to craftsmanship, service, and quality.
