Frank Lloyd Wright Fallingwater (Galison 500)
So glad I dropped the Cross & Glory AI puzzle and set up this Galison double-sided 500-piece puzzle, of Frank Lloyd Wright’s “Fallingwater” (I really don’t know why it’s styled “Fallingwater” not “Falling Water” ….), instead. Puzzle link. Galison’s pieces are crispy but more solid than the one I was doing, and the puzzle cut […]
Alchemist’s Library, Vasilisa Romanenko, eeBoo
Enjoyed this eeBoo 1000-piece puzzle, “Alchemist’s Library“, art by Vasilisa Romanenko. eeBoo: Alchemist’s Library, 1000 piece square jigsaw puzzle. The next installment in Artist Vasilisa Romanenko’s Alchemist Series. A meticulous glimpse into the life and home of a mysterious alchemist filled with books, portraits and scientific detail. I really enjoyed this puzzle — the cozy […]
Samuel Hayward “Cat in Garden”, Artifact
We three did this nicely cat-whimsy-filled “Cat in Garden” puzzle from Artifact today, with art from Samuel Hayward. Please note that Zeniba is in a very similar pose and attitude as the titular “Cat in Garden”. Artifact’s description:
Brawlin’ Betties from LouBud Puzzles
I learned about LouBud from Rebecca Tushnet, of course, and was immediately drawn to this “Brawlin’ Betties” benefit puzzle — benefiting the Brawlin’ Betties, a Santa Barbara-area roller derby team. LOVED this puzzle — so cute with the cut-outs for the roller skate eyelets, and the quite elegant “BB” logo. A keeper! Not hard, at […]
Pixel Peaks by Julie Amlin, Puzzle Lab
We did another fun Puzzle Lab puzzle today — “Pixel Peaks“, with art by Julie Amlin (the original artwork is called “Above the Blue”, but it was renamed for the puzzle ….). The whole family, plus Cass, worked on it. Puzzle Lab says: Sometimes, waters are turbulent. But there’s always a safe shoreline and a […]
3 Cat Max dragonfly, Vicky!
Vicky & Michele did a 3 Cat Max dragonfly. … finished the tail off a little later.
Chris Yates Baffler 4949, Warp and Woof, Orange
August 4 – Hard! We started to make some progress but there’s a lot to go. August 7 – Finished! Chris Yates’ posts on flickr (or was it instagram?) about this puzzle — indispensable, honestly.
King Dasaratha, Inside Out
From Inside Adventure (via Etsy), this beautiful painting of King Dasaratha, from a scene in the Ramayana. Inside Adventure says: This puzzle contains dozens of hand-drawn whimsy pieces, intricately cut into the shapes of different characters, animals and plants. They are works of art within the puzzle. … Our whimsies are carefully crafted and designed […]
Massachusetts, Galison
Ash and Michele did this one the other day.
Piecezz Cat Party
A mini-puzzle from Piecezz, a laser cutter that Michele found. This one (“Cat Party“) was cat-themed, 40 pieces.
CraftHub Parrot
Another little CraftHub puzzle, one of the last of a batch. Exceedingly push-fitty. A family affair – Laura, Ash, Michele.
CraftHub owl
Another CraftHub puzzle, this one an owl, which we all enjoyed!
Miyazaki translucent puzzle
We enjoyed the snap-clickiness of this little Miyazaki art puzzle.
CraftHub bumblebee
A family project! As usual with these, lots of little cute etched whimsies that are just relatively standard for the company, nothing to do with the image. The image, though, is really pretty. (The push-fit style is not any of our favorite, though…)

Ammonite by Nervous System
I had so much fun with this one! Ash and I (and even Michele) worked on it on Sunday and I carefully transported it back home, reassembled the parts that didn’t make it, panicked because I forgot there were a lot of pieces still in the box, and finished it off today. Fun! 117 pieces, […]
Firefly Party eeboo mini
eeboo mini “Firefly Party“, Ash and Michele.
Crafthub “Cat Inspired by Klimt”
I have seen this “inspired by Klimt” description before and I … wonder about it. Regardless, this was beautifully colored and printed, and had a plenitude of (somewhat random) whimsies. The second in a batch of CraftHub puzzles I bought — CraftHub is one of the vendors of Chinese cut puzzles. No artist, no cutter, […]
