Ocean Reef Puzzle to come ...

Right now, I am working on an ocean reef scene. It is the biggest puzzle I have ever done so far, and is taking me a while. Hopefully I will have it done this weekend, because I have a valentines puzzle I want to make for my wife.

I will post pics of the reef scene when I get it done.

Puzzles for Christmas ...

I started this hobby of puzzle cutting a month or so before Christmas. I cut several Christmas card size puzzles just learn, and I did make several presents this year, and this is the first of the gifts.

I cut two of these, although the second one was larger. Here is it's pic.

Both of these were gifts. They were cut in what I call random style which it kind of knobby, less uniform. I am going to try and keep better info on my puzzles in the future. I didn't even write down what size they were.

I got a pic of my sisters dog, and cut him into a puzzle. I really feel like it turned out well.

I also cut a winter scene and an enlarged set of stamps. Here are their pics.

The ballarina's really turned out nice, and I enjoyed cutting them. I am looking into a painting to do with ballet as the subject.

Hello, and Welcome

Just starting this blog to record my attempts at cutting wooden jigsaw puzzles. More to come latter.
