I don't use the dryer sheets for the above reason and the fact that a repairman once told me that lint can also migrate into the part of the dryer that turns the tub, causing it to freeze up and burn out......who knows....if I remember, I will add to washer...if not, no big deal.....oh, I do miss hanging clothes out to dry......jj

for string quilts...I have used gift wrapping tissue paper, phone books, "reports" of my stock porfoliio, and adding machine tape.....fun for skinny Chinese coin column quilt......used msqc sheets too, .......whatever is handy when I get the urge!
