SNaP is an acronym for "SAQA Northern Virginia Pod" - a group of local quilters who belong to the SAQA national organization.  SAQA stands for Studio Art Quilt Associates, a national group that promotes art quilting.
The SNaP challenge was issued to the group to make a 12 inch art quilt to interpret the word "snap".  It could be whatever the word brings to mind - snapshot, a snap closure, the snap of a rubber band - you get the idea.  At our January meeting we shared our challenge pieces seen below.
 Above, we have the snap of a football, and the snap of a broken heart.
The quilt on the left represents snapchat, the quilt on the right represents snappy repartee.
We also have an awesome snapping turtle, and snapdragons (Sue's piece).
 And finally, a piece representing a snapshot.  Looks like successful pieces all around!
