Jigsaws

[Mo1959]

What's this @Mo1959 I have never heard of doing jigsaw on line ?

You have got me all in a tizz .

We get all ours through charity shops and local library allow swaps .

I use one called Jigsaws Galore. I have an imac with a 27” screen so I can do up to four hundred odd pieces without it being too hard on the eyes. You get some free then you can buy more packs.


Just a few I have done.

I think they are called WasJigs. Don't know whether that's the colloquial name or a brand name, but we've done a couple and they are quite tough for beginners like us!

It’s Wasgij. It’s Jigsaw backwards and, yes it’s a brand. We’ve got quite a few and there are different themes:

What happens next?
What was this like in the past?
What can the people in the picture see?

They’re good fun

Just got this from a charity shop. Very pleased as already have one but that’s not enough for a 1000 piecer.

Inside there turned out to be a part puzzle, which I will have to do - just because…

Won’t end well, there’s only one edge piece.

I’ll post the outcome

I use Jigsaw Planet. https://www.jigsawplanet.com/

They are all free to use and on this laptop with a 13" screen I can do up to about 250 pieces. You can choose the subject, shape and the number of pieces. You can also change the colour of the background, and get a "ghost" image if you get stuck. The adverts are not intrusive.

Cats and jigsaw do not mix.

She had one for Christmas in 2019 but it hasn’t been used yet.

Oh dear

Just finished this one

My next project picked up in a junk shop, brand new still in it's cellophane for £3.

I may regret it though!

That looks like a nice one and at least all the 3000 bits should be in the box

I think it will be a while before I post the finished picture 🙂

i honestly can;t remember when i last did a jigsaw, probably as a teenager.
