The photo shows the 1,000-piece jigsaw that I finished last night. Although there were a lot of pieces, it was a bit easier than some because of the distinct sections. I started with the central hessian heart before going on to the bottles then the cotton-reels. Eventually it all came together. The next one I’m looking at is only 500 pieces so shouldn’t take as long. I have a 2,000-piece one here but I won’t be doing it. I don’t know what possessed me to bring it home. Do you sometimes wonder how come you’ve ended up with something you didn’t really want?

Wow! impressive. I also have a 1,000 pc jigsaw I bought 2 years ago but never finished. How long did it take you?

You just have healthy self-confidence, that’s why you took the other one home.

This one looks great!

I don't have the patience to find every jigsaw puzzle piece. However, I enjoy painting with numbers, and I've completed a diamond painting once, which I believe can be as challenging as a puzzle in some ways.

I have a box of 1000 pieces jigsaw laying around my house. I want to do it but I also don’t want to get obsessed with it. How long did it take you to finish one?
