I would hang the fabric outside, even in the winter, it will smell so nice!
We didn't have a dryer when I was growing up and in my wedded life, didn't have one until our youngest of four children was two years old. I had two in diapers at one time and always hung out everything. When frozen on the line and brought in to hang on a drying rack, they didn't take so long to dry and WOW, did they ever smell good and the diapers stayed WHITER. I now have a dryer but still like to hang out my wash.
