Last week I completed my first 1000 piece puzzle in years. It was my isolation of lockdown project. I had basically spent the last 5 weeks doing other things and needed to focus on something more mindless than repairing the house and sorting cupboards.
I finished my puzzle in 5 days, I don’t know if that is fast or not and that is not the reason for me telling you, it is to give you an example of how many hours of mindlessness I got out of my purchase. I would work on the puzzle for at least 2-3hours a day sometimes in the morning with my coffee and other times late at night with my glass of wine. I also had several little hands helping me at various times too.
One thing the puzzle did teach me was patience and it also taught me I am stubborn too. Sometimes I just wouldn’t give up or (go to bed) until I found the jigsaw piece I was looking for.
I truly think finding a puzzle that is something you like to look at is really helpful and encouraging too. I once did a war puzzle and found it rather boring and somber.
So that is why I am sharing with you this awesome Quilt themed puzzle. (seems this one is out of stock but you can also buy it here)
You may also love this coffee puzzle too.

That is so beautiful! Did each square come in a separate bag or were all the pieces loose in the box?
