Those paintings are breathtaking, but I don't know if I'd ever consider ironing romantic! ;-)<br /><br />Hanging wet laundry up on a clothesline to billow in the wind . . .

I am wondering if Mary Cassat or other women artists painted someone ironing! The other day I was with a woman in her 90's whose adult grandson was visiting and when he left she remarked that his shirt needed ironing. I told her that these days few people iron, and many do not fold their clothes right out of the dryer which would help somewhat in eliminating wrinkles. <br /><br />I also find it a somewhat more rewarding task then cleaning the refrigerator, although I detested ironing when I had a family and had so many other things to do.Julygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08113475639726723076noreply@blogger.com
