Keep Animals from Eating Your Grapes
By littergitter
For the past several years we didn't get to enjoy our Scuppernong grapes, except the ones we found as they were beginning to get ripe. Starting in August, before the grapes were fully ripe, the raccoons came at night and had a family reunion in our grapevine. They didn't even clean up after themselves.
Quilting is a beautiful way to display several different patterns and fabrics. Learn how to make these quilt blocks in this short video.
