Re: Jigsaws

I like the Wasgij puzzles. The picture on the box is just a clue of the finished picture. Very challenging, they come in 500 and 1000 pieces.

Re: Jigsaws

I'm told one of the hardest jigsaw puzzles is double sided of a plate of baked beans. I think it's the same image on both sides, but one is rotated relative to the other.

Here's a 1000 piece Thomas Kinkade puzzle I did last year whilst recovering from surgery. I used a jig-roll so it could be put away when the dining table was needed. It worked very well.



It was a present and came complete with some majyk potion to that you painted on it to hold it together without a backing, a frame, and lights.

I love that Fruitcake, my kind of puzzle. I started off doing 500 piece puzzles but have now progressed to 1000. I love doing them and usually have one on the go.
