Another jigsaw finished

I finished the 1,500 piece jigsaw that I started on a week or so ago. I found it difficult as so much of it uses the same colours and patterns but in the end I got it finished. I have another three or four that I’ve been lent by my sister but they will all be easier than this one with fewer pieces and less complicated. At least, that’s what I’m hoping. In other news, we're planning a few days away in the caravan. We'll probably leave about the end of August.

That puzzle is very pretty but it would drive me crazy trying to do it. You did a great job!

I ended up putting similar shapes together in one area. That helped a bit. When I was looking for a particular shape I didn't have so many to trawl through.

It doesn't seem to have a name but it's one of a series called 'Colorluxe'.

It looks like a difficult puzzle to complete. The colors are mixed in so much. Good on you for finishing it.

@JudyEv The ones where the colors run into each other are the most difficult to do.

It was quite challenging. I had to remind myself that I didn't have to rush to complete it.

Congratulations on finishing the puzzle. From the looks of it, there was a lot of patience and determination involved. I had forgotten to ask you what you did with your caravan way back when you moved, but I assumed you would not be able to keep it when you moved to your new community. Where do you park it when it’s not in use?

@JudyEv That's nice that you had an option for keeping and storing the caravan so that you could continue to use it. I hope Vince gets a good report from the lung lady so that the two of you can go on your trip.

We have friends who have a few acres. We paid for a lean-to on their shed and the caravan is parked under that so basically out of the weather. We have used it a lot when we were taking photos but not so much the last 12 months. We're planning a trip sortly to see the wildflowers but Vince needs to see the 'lung lady' first.

You are very patient I remember long time ago I had 1000 pieces of jigsaw of a famous painting. I must admit I haven't finished it yet

It's a lot of pieces, isn't it? Nowadays, I mostly look for those of 500 or 750 pieces.

It looks good. I'm certain it was a challenge with the small pieces and the colors so much alike. Have a fun trip.

Thanks. The next few I have are all much fewer pieces although they can still be challenging.

Oh, wow! The colors are so vibrant! I can see why it was challenging, aside from being 1500 pieces!

I had to remember that I didn't need to finish it in a short time. That helped. I just kept steadily at it.

That puzzle is pretty but looks really hard. I hope you enjoy your trip the end of the month. Drive safely. Have a great day.

I found it hard. I ended up dividing the pieces into similar shapes. Often you can gather all the blues together and all the reds, etc but that didn't work in this case.

I quite surprised myself really. Sometimes I'd get on a roll and get quite a few pieces then come to a sudden stop. lol

Where are you planning to go? It sounds exciting. Do you camp or go to hotels when you travel?

we are going north of Perth as the wildflowers are in bloom there now. We'll stay in caravan parks in our caravan.

That jigsaw puzzle could be framed and put on a wall. Have fun on your excursion.

It would look good on a wall. My sister has framed several of hers and they look really good.

I guess you do need patience and time. I have lots of time and I guess I have quite a bit of patience too.
