Yards of Yarn

I finally have another puzzle finish!

This one has been a long time coming. 

When I first opened the box and
looked at it this is how I felt

This is how the pieces look
and as you can see there is no
rhyme or reason to the shapes

and no good way to
sort the pieces by color!

This puzzle frustrated me so I worked on
it intermittently but it was always calling
my name mocking me and saying 
"Faith, come work on me"
so I persisted and finally finished it!

I assemble the puzzles on a giant bulletin board so I can easily spin it around
to work on the other side or move it to another place if I need the table I am using.

And here it is
FINISHED! 

Yards of Yarn
First Piece - 03/16/17
Last Piece - 06/12/17
Piece Count - 1,500
Size 29 x 36

I plan on sealing this puzzle and hanging the wall. I was also looking for a poster frame to put it in to further protect it but can't find one this large at a reasonable price! There is a Poster store not far from here so I may stop in there when I am out and see if they can help me.

Thanks for stopping by,
see ya next time!

Oh my I would still be scratching my head!!! How in the world did you do this? It's adorable however! You did a great job. My Mom used to do puzzles all the time and I would frame them for her. They look great all done. RJ

Congrats on finishing the puzzle Faith. I love doing puzzles and have about 70 glued and hanging in the garage. I would never attempt this one. Good job.

Never before have I seen a puzzle with all the pieces in different shapes. I can easily imagine that it wasn't easy to put them together.
