I was too late to the puzzle party, and every puzzle that I've liked has been sold out. My stepmum was doing this Holdson puzzle "What's She Thinking - Sidewalk Checkers" by Susan Brabeau. Whenever I went over to their house to watch the football with my dad, I would do a little bit of the puzzle during the quarter time breaks. She finally finished it the other day, and waited for me to go over there to see it completed before packing it away.

I finally rec'd this one about 2.5 weeks ago after ordering a few after covid-19 hit. Somewhere cancel return to sender and then I finally got this one. And then of course it wasn't really in the mood anymore LOL I have done a bit here and there, was going to do some more today but got sidetracked with something else. Eventually.

I finished this one last week - it’s called Best Disney Themes and is from Ravensburger. I really enjoyed this one - it was so colourful and the theme was so much fun. Next on the table is this one. It is a real challenge - all the edge pieces are the same colour, and this picture on the box is all I have to work from, and it is so small I can’t read the text bits. This is going to take time.

I finally got work to slow down enough to start doing my puzzles, just when y’all have moved on, I bet. 😂 My inner science geek loved this one.

I ALMOST pulled out another puzzle yesterday and thought twice 😂 Friends helped me do a 2,000 from Buffalo Games. This one was HUGE. I didn’t realize just how many pieces a 2,000 was! 🤓 Attachments:

I’ve just finished this one. It has taken me over 2 weeks, with all the fine details. It is also the first time I didn’t start with the border, due to all the pieces being basically the same colour. I’d really recommend this brand - Buried Blueprints - if you enjoy a challenging puzzle.

I finally rec'd this one about 2.5 weeks ago after ordering a few after covid-19 hit. My DD would love this one! She has been my puzzle making partner but abandoned me to finish Bgraamiens Skyscraper Sea on my own. I think this is my favorite of all the puzzles so far. Next I hope to get to the pizza puzzle you linked a couple weeks ago, seaexplore .

Next I hope to get to the pizza puzzle you linked a couple weeks ago, seaexplore . I started the lion, got all the edges and some inside and am letting it rest for a while. I wish it came quicker. I think I'm mad at it. Or at least it lost it's luster while waiting. and waiting. and waiting.

Just to keep this thread alive, I want to mention that I have been very happy with Anatolian Puzzles. Outstanding quality, vivid colors, little puzzle dust, and bonus they replace missing pieces for no charge!

Outstanding quality, vivid colors, little puzzle dust, and bonus they replace missing pieces for no charge! Some great puzzles on the site you mentioned, Anatolian. Awesome colors and shading. I’ll definitely consider them the next time I’m looking for puzzles. Just ordered 10 puzzles between Bits&Pieces, Serious Puzzles and Cat&Mouse. Adding to my stash with some states shutting down again.

This is without a doubt the most challenging puzzle and it is kicking my behind. Normally at a week in we would be finishing. I'm testing postimage so hope this works.

We did this 1,000pc one last weekend. It was a fun one. I like the retro ones from White Mountain. I just got this one for daughter for her birthday. She wanted 1,000 pc puzzle. Now to figure out where she can work on it...

I bought a felt puzzle roller upper thing (lol) that we can put away when we're not working on it because I don't have space to leave it out.

Finished this New York Puzzle Company Sirius Black puzzle. The colors were really tough and it took a while. DD and I worked on it together - she’s a huge HP fan. It was a great way to spend time together. This Escher puzzle is up next.
