Painted Lady by Joseph Holodook.
I laugh every time that I pull out a Bits & Pieces puzzle now. Oh, how I hated these with a white hot passion when I first started puzzling. Now I actually mostly enjoy them. :) They still make my brain work harder with everything at angles and not a linear thing in sight... but I like them. And I can do them now. I figure it is good for my brain to throw these in every little bit. I don't like the lack of poster, but at least the box image shows the whole image completely. No blocking of image and no loss on the edges. So that helps. I like this image and think I'll like this puzzle. There is no puzzle dust with Bits & Pieces puzzles.
I did laugh that when I finally got the edges corrected it became much easier! ha! I knew I had something wrong but hadn't realized I just needed to move a piece from the right side to the left side and that would fix it all. Once I pushed it together then whole swaths of pieces connected and I was on my way. :) Pleasant diversion but now ready for a non-angular, ribbon cut puzzle, I do believe.
This picture is right before I discovered the edge problem
Then here I had fixed it but still hadn't fully connected the right side all the way down.
And here I have fixed it all the way down and fully connected all those middle pieces that were giving me fits. :)
