Special pieces
New puzzles arrived in the mail this week from Liberty.
Not only are wooden puzzles fun to work, but the whimsy pieces are a real treat. I had been thinking about cleaning. A friend stopped over to see how I was doing and caught me setting up the puzzle.
Over the course of the day, we did two – finishing up the Map of London – we then moved on to a vintage Opera poster. The whimsy pieces are even period appropriate; featuring various lords, ladies, horses with carriages and era appropriately dressed children with toys. In contrast, the special pieces in Phil Lewis’s Flatiron had been western figures from animals through bucking broncos.
I might not have cleaned much, but I did have a good time.
I would love to know how they actually make these. They look fun. How many pieces to a puzzle?
Little ones have a couple of hundred. These are in the 400-500 piece range. Something about laser cut…
