Quilts on the Washing Line

One thing I am enjoying about being back in Oz, is that I can wash my quilts and hang them up outside on the washing line… living in Arabia this wasn’t an option because we were in an apartment with no outside area… besides, dust storms were quite frequent…
Here, however, it is lovely to be able to hang them up after I’ve washed them…
When you bring them in off the line they smell so fresh and clean…
Sometimes I get some help in hanging them up….
Although she’s really just there for the company since she is too little to reach the line…
This next photo would have been perfect if I had hung the quilt right side up!!!!!
Oh, and here is another quilt not on the washing line, but held up by eldest DS:
Yep, the purple mystery quilt is finally done!!!!! I want to take some more pics and then it will go to its new home….
I’m curious, do you hang your quilts outside to dry?
Sure do, but then I live in Australia too. 🙂 Love your helper in the basket. And the picture is perfect, the quilt is only upside down because you said so!
Lovely post! I would love to be able to hang my quilts outside. Plus, my sheets. However, my yard is small and I do not have a clothesline. I am vowing to buy a portable clothesline. Your kitty is very sweet, too!
I would love love to hang my quilts and laundry outside–
esp if I had that sweet helper!!!!!
luv, di
Congratulations on the purple finish – looks great! I used to hang my quilts out to dry because we had a clothesline, but alas not lucky enough to have one of those in the apartment. (btw – didn’t notice the quilt was downside up because I was totally captivated by that sweet face!!)
Hey-I noticed the purple quilt right away!!! Great finish!
I love your little feline helper.
Love the purple quilt, just gorgeous. Such a cute little helper you have there. I love all my wash to be hung outside not just quilts, nothing beats the fresh smell of wash straight off the line. Hugs,xx
Great to have your purple mystery quilt finished and a nice group of clean quilts also. Yes, I wash and hang on the line always….

Outside for washing is always best, but then of course you know I do that as we live in Oz & I think you even helped me bring mine in one day when it started to rain (giggle). They all look great, even the upside down one? (really). Good finish for the purple one & who is so photogenic? Have a good weekend & take care.
Yes nothing nice than fresh air and sunshine. Loved seeing all your pretties and congratulations on finishing your Purple quilt xx
I hang all my laundry on the clothesline at home on the farm. I love to hang laundry and take it off the line smelling so good! Hubby is really good at letting me know if there is rain or dust on the way because it usually hits town before it gets to me…then the race is on to see if I can beat the yuck that’s on the way! Your helper is too cute! Our barn cats are very good about leaving the flapping fabrics alone. Late autumn, winter and early spring sees my dryer in use…I don’t want frozen clothes! I would never have considered that your quilt was upside down – they are all beautiful.
I wish I could hang our linens outside to dry. I love that smell. I hardly noticed the upside-down quilt either, I was mesmerized by those blue eyes in that sweet little face!
So many pretty quilts! And what’s better than cats & quilts?
Such nice-looking quilts! My quilting buddy was also leash/harness trained. We had to euthanize her a month ago due to end-stage kidney disease. So I am a little lost without my 18-year old kitty.
We are not allowed to hang anything outside – darn association rules in my community.
Sweet little kitten helper!
