I use to love when I was staying with my Dad, we would work on doing a jigsaw puzzle together. Funny how some unusual fond memories stick with you for life.

Here is another puzzle website. I got the link to this site when
Alex Anderson (The Quilt Show) posted a link to quilts.

Now I even create some puzzles and have completed MANY so far.

Please HELP! Can anyone tell me....is there a quick way to unscramble the pieces??? I've had my name on the leader board several times but sometimes I see where some people finish the puzzle in 20 minutes and it takes me almost that long just to unscramble the pieces. Is there some secret to separate all the pieces before you work the puzzle?

Thanks tes, I love jig saw puzzles. I also like the Accu Quilt Quilters on the Go Saturday puzzle.

I move all non-edge pieces to the sides. As I'm moving pieces I put the edge pieces on the top/bottom/right/left. Then I put the edges together first & then work on the rest. As for time....I figure how ever log it takes me so be it...I do it for fun.
