These are my jigsaw efforts for all of 2016. Not as many this year - too busy! (and the big one took ages, then I was away for a while).
After having so much fun with the 1000 different coloured piece jigsaw, Stu got me its big brother - a 5000 piece version - for Christmas last year (although it didn't arrive til January). It was certainly a lot more challenging, and would have been quite awesome, except for the fact that the quality was shocking and there was a piece missing. I really want a refund it was that bad. I'm going to do a full post and send it to the manufacturers to complain.
This was a jigsaw I did out at the club - of the entrance to Dreamworld.
These were the three jigsaws I did at the coast in July.
This is a 1500 piece jigsaw brought home from mum's at some point. Did most of it myself then David helped finish it when he came up in August.
This 1000 piece jigsaw of balloons we all smashed out in an evening.
So the next day we very quickly did this one of buttons.
This is supposed to be "the world's most difficult jigsaw" as it's got the same picture on the back, but rotated ninety degrees. So each piece (except a diagonal line through the middle) exists twice. So yes it was a bit difficult, but certainly not the most difficult jigsaw ever. I started it at work the day I was watching graphs and finished it over lunch breaks in the next few weeks.
A jigsaw of New York that I bought shortly after the World Trade Centre attacks of 2001. I'd done it once back then, and we did it when David came to visit in November.
This was setup at work in a different team's area. I discovered it just after they'd separated the pieces and done some of the edge. We finished it in forty minutes flat.
And this is my own jigsaw of the world that David mostly did when he came up for Christmas. He also did another jigsaw on Christmas morning but I didn't document it because I barely helped at all - was too busy cooking lunch!
