    That's about the only thing that I don't line dry. They are just so so so crunchy that I would HATE to have them on my bum. I dryer dry them.

    We line dry pretty much everything when we can. Sure, it's a pain in the butt sometimes, but hey, it's free, right? ;)

    My daughter hasn't been in diapers for a long time, but we line dry everything. I did learn that in Florida, unless you really don't mind moths and other bugs in your pants, you should bring the laundry in and throw it in the dryer for a minute. I love to hang my laundry out, I think it's theraputic. :)

    I think drying cloth diapers with a dryer is a big minus on it's cost and environmental friendlyness.

    If you put vinegar in instead of fabric softener, it gets all of the soap residues out and your clothes will dry and not be so "crunchy". Just pour it straight into the fabric softener spot. I line dry everything, weather permitting.

    I line dry everything. Especially diapers-well, I don't use diapers anymore-but I loved letting them dry outside. The sun bleached them out so wonderfully!

    Yeah, I do that too. It just doesn't work for my dipes or thick towels :( If it's a windy day, I line dry the dipes ;)
