It worked--thanks! (time-2:20)

Yes, it did! I changed it to 48-piece classic, but I don't think I'll tell you how long it took me to complete it! I think I should try again.

Oh my gosh, yes! How cool is that!

I did 48 piece too -- took over 7 minutes....

i'm working on the 240 piece classic now. did you know if you click on the timer on left, it stops. then starts again soon as you pick up a piece or click anywhere on the puzzle. means you can go make a cuppa or gives you time to think. ok ok, so its a cheat, big deal. its mine and i'll cheat if i want to. so there. j.

no idea how long that took you to quilt it but i'd think you and Karen both should have few problems getting it done in record time. try change cut and see how much better you get each time. click on timer at left and it stops while you think or get a cuppa or whatever. j.

When I tried the 48-piece classic the second time, I cut nearly two minutes from my original time. Then, for kicks, I went to a 20-piece classic and did it in 59 seconds. You're right - you'd think Karen and I would remember where each and every block was, but my memory just doesn't always oblige!

What fun !!!

you're setting records there tho. everyone that does each various cut/#of pieces will see you're record time and want to beat it. i just had Sam using the computer so was afk for a while. now i'll go back and continue with the 240 classic view. lets see what i can do it in....with cheating of course. :) memory like a sieve on an island is not a good thing, the water keeps getting in, j.

rofl, yup, tis that, dont forget to click the timer when you're busy thinking what goes where. it stops the timer til ya click on the board again. j.

This should come with a warning---ADDICTIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ragmop posted this site a long time ago, and I just can't seem to stay away from it, which is strange--I really don't like jig saw puzzles. Gen

I hadn't gone to the site before I just posted. Really cool to have your quilt, now try some of the other ones on the site. Gen

i'm working my way thru all the different shapes on my Green quilt. i always start with your block, as its the most easily recognizable at that size. the high contrast and that gorgeous colour and design just POP!!

i do a jigsaw online everyday there. usually just whatever the daily one they set happens to be. i like that you can choose the shape and # of pieces according to how sharp the brain feels on the day. i'm reg'd on the site so i can put up my own pix and if there are others reg'd there, add them as a friend and we can compare speeds on various puzzles when we both do them. j.

I didn't realize we could do that. I'll check it out. Gen
