Canvas – Cloudberries – 1000 pieces

Pixels – Cloudberries – 1000 pieces

In my reviews of the above Cloudberries puzzles, I mentioned that I thought they should put the dimensions of the finished puzzle on the box so we puzzlers can be sure it will fit our workspaces.

Yesterday I was informed that they, in fact, do put the dimensions on the box. Oops! I looked all over the boxes to try and find the puzzle size, and somehow I completely missed it every time. My sincere apologies!

I can only blame lack of sleep and pain meds for my poor observational skills (or perhaps my advancing age and worsening eyesight). As you can see above, the first line of the small print shows the finished size of the puzzle.

I’ve edited both reviews, and wanted to be certain to update my readers as well. I’ll do my best to be more observant from now on. 🙂

This puzzle is going very slowly, though I’m not sure why. I didn’t touch it at all yesterday, but that was just because I wasn’t feeling well. But when I’m actually working on it, it seems to be slogging along at a snail’s pace.

When we first got this puzzle, mom and I both said it looked like a fun image to put together. I still think that, but for some reason I can’t explain it’s going much less quickly than I assumed it would.

I’m still enjoying it though, and I’m hoping to make some good progress today.

Are you working on anything fun? How’s it going?

It’s Monday, and I’m feeling like it’s a Monday. And all that’s left on the puzzle I’m currently working on is the “Monday” tediousness of the background. Ugh, Monday.

I’m working on the second of two Cloudberries puzzles, and it is much more challenging than Pixels was. But the quality is wonderful and the image is so fun that the challenge is entertaining rather than frustrating.

The white background means that most of the edge pieces are all white, I didn’t even try to put the edge together first; this is one of those puzzles where the edges go on last. It seemed a little odd at first, but the image itself has to lead the assembly. Usually if I try to make a plan I end up having to change it once I look at the pieces and see what jumps out at me.

I’m having a great time with it!
