Clothspin bag
#91
I love to hang our clothes out on warm to hot days.
I just posted a new bag I made a couple of weeks ago. I cut a bag up I got from a past friend and whose fabric choice I did not like and copied the pattern from that. Since I do not know where it came from, I don't think I should share it.
However, follow the links some have posted and then tweak those patterns for your bag.
I think I posted all pics of this under Pictures. Just Search clothespin bag. Tru-Value hardware is where I got some of my pins. Of course the others I use are over 35 years old and stll in good condition because I alway's take them off the line and bring the bag inside.

To me the dress seems hard to get in and out of. I wanted something I could access easily. I used a new dish towel and a hanger. I found the idea somewhere on line. To dress it up I appliqued a wool running bunny and some "pennies". It turned out cute. It was a little tricky because the towel I used wanted to stretch.

Here it is. The elastic sewn inside the back of the collar keeps it from sliding off the hanger, but it's still easily removable. And the capacity volume is adjustable depending on how many buttons you leave open.

Hanging out clothes is the "green" thing to do and they smell FANTASTIC! Take that, silly husband. :)
As for neighborhoods that don't want clothes lines: Our daughter wanted one and wasn't sure about the "rules" We bought her an umbrella-style clothesline with a sleeve to hold it that stays in the ground. Then I made a cover for it as it is folded up for storage. She starts the load of clothes, runs out with the clothes line, sets it up and hangs the clothes. When they are dry, the line/frame is folded,covered and stored in the garage. No one really has time to complain, especially if they are all at work during the day.
