Default Do You Like Puzzles

My DH and I keep the puzzle board up at all times. I got this puzzle for Christmas and we have been working on it for about 3 weeks now. It is a fun puzzle. I especially asked for it because of the Singer Sewing Machine.

Take a look. If you enjoy puzzles I think you would really like this one.

These puzzles frustrate the heck out of me, but my daughter loves them and, like you, has one up most of the time. Quilt themes might help, but now I have no place to lay one out. Enjoy the work on yours!

I like doing puzzles but don't have room to keep one out. I often have to put it away before I'm done with it. My dream home has a place for me to leave one out all the time!!

I do the ones on jigidi all the time. What I like about this website is that you can pick how many pieces make up the puzzle. So for those of you that get frustrated, try some with fewer pieces. I work the ones with 60-120 pieces.
