Nimble Thimbles January Show and Tell

 I always get so many ideas from 
Show and Tell.
It really is one of my favorite parts of attending a guild meeting.
I love to see what others are making
and come home inspired to pull out my fabrics
and get quilting.
Below is a small sampling
from The Nimble Thimbles this month.
 Love this version of a 
Snails Trail
 A great way to use up scraps.
 A fun owl quilt one member made for her grand daughter.
 A baby quilt awaiting the birth of a new grand child.
The names and dates will be filled in on the banners.
When our group first looked at this quilt we wondered if the center
(a french word for Persian applique)
but it's actually a panel :)
I really liked her use of 16 patch blocks for the inner borders.

I have never made a snails trail - I have thought of it numerous times but never got started - I love the one you show.
