We are in for a couple of really hot days here - perfect time for washing a few quilts! I love to dry them outside then, in the shade, since protection from sunlight is a good idea in order to keep the colors from fading.
Since mine are all handmade I wash them very carefully, and they take it very well. I love how they smell when I collect them in the evening!
I talk about how I wash my quilts in detail in a column at the right hand side here: "How To Take Care Of A Quilt (storing / airing / washing)"
Happy Summer!
