I love jigsaw puzzles! I LOVE THEM! I have only had one I could not put together, but I think that had a lot to do with the fact it was one someone gave me and I didn't like it all that well anyway. A Thomas Kincaid which seemed to be all the same color!
This one was a gift from my baby DSIL. They visited a couple of months ago and she helped start it. Unfortunately, they left before it was finished. It only took me a couple of weeks to get it done, but I kept it up for a couple of weeks after that.
I sent it to another DSIL as she loves them as much as I do. She sent me a doozy one time, and it took me ages to finish! She, however, was able to finish the one that I couldn't in just a couple of weeks or less. BAH.
I am in the process of making her an afghan in blues and greens in Vanna's Choice. I forgot to ask her if she wanted light color or dark colors, but at least clarified she doesn't like wool. I decided to buy yarn that looks a lot like the Caribbean Ocean....beautiful lighter blues and greens with a touch of teal. Hopefully she will like it.
I did finish my Hexagon afghan and posted it on my other site. It didn't sell at the bazaar so am touching it up a tad with another border - in Eggplant, to match some of the colors in the afghan. Might give it to my DSD as she seemed to like it a lot. I'll post a photo of it when I am finished with the whole border.
Happy yarning!
