Oh this one I was working on for weeks. Eventually gave it up and packed it away as hubby was complaining it taking up too much space and I wasn't getting anywhere. I really must find it and post a pic.
The biggest puzzle I have is about 3ft long and 3000 pieces!
It is also very old. My mom got it back before I was born and gave it to me shortly after I moved out.
It is in the shape of a dog bone and has pictures of the different types of dogs. There are even a few pieces shaped like dog bones. It's quite nice. Every few years I'll get it out and put it together.

Oh Wow. Next time please post a pic. That also sounds like it is a difficult one.

Maybe you should put it together and then frame it. To preserve it of course.

I considered doing that but to be honest I would miss putting it together. For as old as it is, it is still in pretty good shape. If it does start showing obvious signs of damage I will probably have it sealed and framed..

Good idea. Well hopefully you get to do it lots more times before that becomes necessary.

I once had a circular jigsaw puzzle that was about 30 inches in diameter when it was finished. It was really pretty: a floral background with lots of natural looking butterflies on it. I glued it together and had it mounted and sealed, and hung it on the wall in my office at work for several years!:)

I love jigsaw puzzles...but so do our CATS!!!!!!!!!! :mad::mad::mad:
We would have to lock them up in a room (and listen to them yowl and howl) while we worked on the puzzle. We ended up never finishing it and gave it away! :D:D:D
