Puzzle #4 - Bits & Pieces A Visit to the General Store by Ruane Manning - 300 pieces.
By this time I had placed some online orders to feed my growing enthusiasm... :) They had arrived and I felt like a kid in a candy shop - or at the very least a kid with a brand new package of 64 crayons! What to do first??? I chose this puzzle from Bits & Pieces and was soon feeling totally undermined. I did NOT like the wonky shaped pieces. This is when I realized my brain does not work 'sideways'. (This puzzling experience truly has shown me many things about how I think... so very interesting.)
Soooo, the Bits & Pieces 'random cut' is not for me... made zero sense to my logical brain. I also felt the picture was so vaguely printed that nothing really looked clear or like it was supposed to. However, I wasn't going to let it beat me! I managed to finish it. Looking back, this is so interesting that I struggled so much with a 300 piece puzzle. I wonder if it would still be a struggle for me now or if I have strengthened my puzzling muscles enough that it would be easier today... hmmm....
