Here in Chicago I had a growing season almost to the end of November before I had to put my garden to bed.  I took all the pots from the side yard and put them under a sand box next to our wall, packed in real tight.  I am hoping that it will keep the temperature even enough that the perennials survive.   Even in January the parsley is still green!

While I can’t be out with the dirt I have been crafting.  My new passions come from Betz White’s sewing green that I got for Christmas.  I have been making Morsbags and totes out of reclaimed linens that I found at the Salvation Army and other Thirft stores.  See later posts for details.
