Got way more done today than I was able to yesterday, which made me very happy! The twinklies can be a little boring – so on one hand you want to get them over with, and on the other hand you would rather work on something more visually interesting.
If I’m feeling ok tomorrow I’m hoping to get the top edge of this section done as far as the twinklies are concerned. I have no plans beyond that, I’ll be glad just to get the top done. But it’s starting to look good!
Not a lot of progress today, barely over 100 pieces. 😦
I tried, but wasn’t able to do much of anything today. I did get Mrs. Potts connected to the twinklies and filmstrip, and I was able to find a few more pieces of Cogsworth. I did get started on the left side twinklies but didn’t accomplish as much as I would have liked.
I only finished the blue today and wasn’t able to get started on the twinklies. But I made progress and that’s what counts. 🙂
I hope to have some time tomorrow when I’m feeling well enough to sit and work on the puzzle for a while. It’s been a rough few weeks for me physically and I’m not always able to work on the puzzle as much as I’d like to.
Edges get started tomorrow! Yay! I was able to lay in bed today and separate the twinklies by shape, so that’s a small head start on tomorrow’s work. I really have enjoyed all these sections and I’m getting kinda sad that it’s coming to an end. 😦 I have plenty of puzzles to keep me busy for probably 3 or 4 years, but it’s been fun having a giant project to work on and having this blog to keep a record of it. Apparently I’m feeling melancholy this evening. It’s the damn menopause, it seems to meno-pause-my-sanity for a bit.
It took me a week to get The Lion King off the board, things happened and I wasn’t feeling well; and I also realize that I’m probably trying to make this puzzle last so I think I was stalling. 😐
There are only 2 sections left and it takes a little over 2 weeks per puzzle, so I only have a month left of work on this thing. Holy guacamole! How in the world did it go so fast? I still haven’t decided what to do with this damn thing yet!
This is honestly 2 days worth of work, as I did lay in bed one day and started working on the characters on trays. Not really fun assembling on the trays so I left that alone and waited to get The Lion King off the board before I kept going. I do assemble on trays in bed when I’m not feeling well and can’t really sit or stand to work on the puzzle, but it isn’t as fun as working at the board to me.
Filmstrip is done. Not bad for a day’s work! Tomorrow will be the dark blue and perhaps starting the twinklies. I’m so glad to be back working on it. I’m torn between wanting to get it done and wanting to make it last. I’m not sure which side will win, stay tuned to find out!
I did my best to get a good picture, and this was the best I was able to take. I thought about standing the board up against the wall, but that’s how the whole Jungle Book fiasco happened. So here’s the best I could do for now, Hakuna Matata!
This section was fun, and just gorgeous! I loved every minute of the assembly, and I’m kinda sad that it’s over with to be honest. This section took 15 days, which isn’t bad considering there were some medical issues going on and some days I wasn’t able to do much puzzling at all. Some days I took trays of pieces to bed with me and worked on it laying down in another room! 🙂
I’m loving this whole puzzle so much, but I’m dreading being completely finished. I still have no idea what to do with the completed puzzle, none whatsoever. 😦 Any suggestions? Please help!! I know when all 10 sections are complete I’m going to want to assemble them all so I can take lots of pictures of my accomplishment. But if I don’t figure out what’s going to happen with the finished puzzle I may end up having to disassemble the puzzle back into 10 sections. The very thought of that makes me cringe!
Next up……. Beauty and The Beast, isn’t it lovely?
It will probably be a day or two before I’m able to start working on Beauty and The Beast. The Lion King is still on the board so we have to carefully get Simba and friends taken off and stored, and there is still sorting to do. I am really looking forward to this one, I’ve been looking forward to it since September! I’ve saved the ones I thought would be the most fun for last and here we are – I’m so excited!
