I have been working on a new puzzle style for myself, and am very happy with the results. What I do is not to have a picture on the puzzle, but make the puzzle the picture itself. I do this by staining certain pieces of the puzzle different stain colors. I have made several of the in the last few months, and below are the results!! Let me know if you are interested in a puzzle in this style!!!
The first is a double spiral that is approx. 16" in diameter, and is 353 pieces. It was a very challenging puzzle to assemble.
Next is a Celtic Cross puzzle that is 19in tall, and 14" wide. I made 2 of these puzzles as gifts for family members and was running close on getting them done in time, so I never got to assemble this puzzle for myself. When they tell me how long they took for them to put together, I will edit this post.
The last one I have made is a smaller version of the big spiral. This one is about 6 1/2 " in diameter, and is 97 pieces. I cut 2 of these, and the first is on ebay right now. It would make a great coffee table puzzle and took my wife about an hour to put together. Since she puts a lot of my puzzles together, I am guessing it would take the average person about 1 1/2 to 2 hours to assemble it.
