How meny people still hang cloths outdoors? I do and am looking for clothspin bag. I remember one that was cute little dress,can't find A pattern. Any other cute ones would be fine also.

I saw the pattern at my LQS a few days ago. It's still being printed. Just put clothes pin bag in search engine and came up with quite a few free patterns. One even looked like a dress.

yes you can still buy the clothespin bag patterns, seen them at quilt shops

Thanks for the info.

I used a free pattern from tipnut here: http://tipnut.com/11-free-clothespin-bag-patterns/

Here's a picture of the one I made: http://debzpicaday.blogspot.com/2011...28-of-365.html

We hang clothes out on line and I said this morning that I needed to make a new bag

Love the dress you made --thanks for the web page

I still hang my clothes outside. Here is a picture of one of my clothespin bags that I made.

Very cute, just what I had in mind. Thanks

I would love to hang clothes out sometimes. But my husband thinks it looks tacky, silly man. And the neighborhood we recently moved into prohibits clotheslines, though I could probably get away with retractable ones in our backyard, due to the privacy fence.

I like the clothespin bags!

Love the Clothespin bags I'm thinking that all one would have to do is go to thrift stores and get a few little girls dresses are shirts and sew the bottoms closed and hand stitch a piece of ribbon on the back of the dress by the neck to tie onto the hanger to keep it in place, and you'd have a great clothespin bag. :-D

I've made many many of them like the one pictured by clynns.
Sold them for $10 each at craft fairs. I've had the pattern a long time, but believe I purchased it from Clotilde.com

And yes, I hang a lot of things out on the line :thumbup:

I made one for my daughter and she uses it to hold those plastic bags from the grocery store. Looks cute all puffed out.

I do, but my little pin bag dress is a vintage one!

I didn't know that these existed... I hang out my sheets, but not my clothes. I always take my clothespins off the line each time and store them in a small container, but I really like this idea!

I hang stuff occas depends on allergies. Rather hang clothes outside!

:-D :-D :-D I made my own pattern for a dress like yours and I don't have it in this puter, other wise I would share the pattern. It's in my old puter and it crashed some time ago. Good luck with what you do. Huggies, Fay

yep...tipnut is where I saw the free patterns...the green one at the top and the cuter one is 5 pics down from that one...Naomi :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

That is what I did and it works ok.

where did you find the pattern? I love it and would like to make one! I still hang my clothes outside and so does my mother! She would love it too!

Here is web site couple folks sent ..http://tipnut.com/11-free-clothespin-bag-patterns/

I do! Love the smell of the ocean breeze on my sheets.
Tip Nut has tons of patterns:

How would it be to find a child's dress or shirt and seam it up for one...easy...I think I will try it!

I no loner hang clothes because of allergies but I did used to make bags from toddler dresses by sewing up the bottom and putting it on a regular hanger.

Keepsake Quilts has one.

I'm about to lose my precious close line, due to a fencing change. Making sure I've got a new one ASAP.
Why is it in these days of "eco friendly" everything no one is pushing closeline drying? Plus...it free!

I made this one. I didn;t have a pattern just made it up!

mts, I have one like the one you're talking abotu but I don't have a pattern for it. If I took a pic of it, do you think you could make a pattern by it?

Great idea!

I still hang my clothes out, but I just use an ice cream pail and set my basket on a little bench my hubby made along with the pail.

My mom had an apron for clothes pins.

Thanks for the links. Sure beats my plastic bag!

I know exactly what you are looking for and I think I saw a pattern in Keepsake Quilting, but not 100% sure. It might be a good place to start.

After looking at the pictures, why couldn't you buy a childs dress at a thrift shop and just close off the bottom or add a pouch inside? I've seen really cute dresses.

I do, I use line and folding rack that I put on my deck or inside the house in the winter. I use the dryer when trees are pollinating and sometimes in the winder

I still hang and love it!! Check tipnut.com and in their search put in clothspin bags and see what you find. They have great recipes, patterns, ideas. Have subscribed for several years. Good luck.

my husband also told me we weren't allowed to hang laundry in our township.. I do.. I use a basket for my clothes pins. I should think you could just take a childs dress and sew up the bottom . Just use a childs hanger to hang the dress and there you have a clothes pin bag..

Thanks everyone for the input!! What A wonderful thing to have QB friends.

Don't understand why they would say you can't hang laundry out. Saves lot money in these hard time's. But there is lot things don't make sence to me. :D

I still hang out laundry each week !!! I dont like to put many of my things in the dryer. I found a pin bag at Walmart but next time I need one I will certainly be making one.

I hang clothes outside it saves on the electric bill and when you live by yourself you have to save where you can and besides there isn't anything better then sheets hung outside smells wonderful!!!!!!
