This is another weekly project I'm participating in. Every Sunday I post a new snail block for Angie at Gnome Angel's Snail Paced Sew Along. The pattern is from Pen and Paper Patterns.

Before leaving, before packing my clothes, I rummaged through my EPP desk and found a pack of 2" diamond templates.
