I recently came across a website for the right to dry. Electric dryers use 6% of our national energy usage. I would never deny a person the right to use a dryer in the winter or anytime actually, but many of us like to dry our clothes outside. Cute bags, I want one :)

Oh so cute! I remember my mom & grammas having the fabric bags for their clothespins. I was old enough (in the 60's) to help hang up laundry on the line. Loved that smell ...
Also remember helping my mom "sprinkle" clothing before she ironed it, and she kept my dad's shirts in a bag in the refrig. until she could press and starch them ... :)

I have one of these that was made by my mother...Brings back memories of the clothes line in the back yard.

I hang clothes ALL year long. My basement has clothes lines stretched all across, back and forth, to and fro. I much prefer hanging laundry over machine drying.

These are cute. I also have the pattern and made several for friends
and pen pals.
Also made one for my sister and myself just to have around as a reminder of the ones my mom and grandma had.
Grandma made me one in the 60's I think and I still have it but is a little raggy from hanging in the sun too long.
If this new one gets used it will not be left out side.
