A lint filter basket liner for a laundry dryer includes a central area of filter medium including a metal foil border on at least one side edge but preferably on multiple side edges. When placed over the lint filter screen, the liner is held in place by deformation of the foil border around the sides of the filter basket. The border spans a sufficient distance such that it can accommodate a range of filter basket sizes and proportions. The filter medium may consist of any suitable material including fibrous non-woven, a fibrous woven fabric, or a fibrous knitted fabric. The foil border is preferably affixed to the foil medium by an adhesive in which edge portions of the filter medium are laminated between opposing layers of the metal foil.
