Bluekoi, I like a good challenge when doing puzzles, hence the 1000 piece ones I bought.

Just an update. My puzzles should arrive tomorrow afternoon with the mail. I am on edge with excitement to see what my free surprise puzzle is. Probably going to be one I would never pick out, but challenging non the less.

I have a small table that I keep just to do jigsaw puzzles on. Maximum size is 1500. I find puzzles helpful for relaxation.

I don't have the patience, but I'm sure it would do me some good to focus & accomplish one. My focus is that of a 5 year old. Ugh.

My daughter does the same thing. As they say..."there is an app for everything." Pretty nifty to be able to do them digitally.

Have never tried digital jigsaws. The physical pieces are tactile and somehow soothing.

Here is one I just started - 1000 piece by HEYE, Tinga Tinga Art from Africa - Togetherness.

Pretty! I like jigsaw puzzles but I dont have space to lay one out so i do them online And the other day I was really early for an appt, I saw a jigsaw puzzle almost finished in the waiting area, I worked on it really fast for the next 30 minutes to see if I could finish it before my appt. And I did !

Sweet! I love puzzles. I did two this weekend alone. A 100 piece and a 500 piece, and only took my like 3 hours...I need to get another 1000 piece so I can spend a few days on it. But 1000 piecers are SUCH a commitment!

Oh wow, that one is so cool. I need to get started on a 1000 piece puzzle soon here. I might look for that one, it's so beautiful. The last 1000 piece I did was a Thomas Kincaid puzzle.
