“Autumn Aspen”, puzzle from Bewilderness<\/a>; 326 piece version, with geometric pieces; 11×16″. Art by Laura McElfresh<\/a>. So pretty! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fairly challenging given the low-key color palette, with a good bit of repetition of color blocks. Started with the large block teal in the middle bottom and the right. The squared pieces are fun for me; you can’t rely on tiny details about the knobs, so it’s all about color, and the grid-like counts. I wonder if the puzzle cut designer (not credited on the website, sadly) uses a program \/ algorithm for this? I wonder if they are unique to each puzzle? Also, I thought it would be very easy to accidentally have swastikas, and appreciated that they likely weed those out, and are attentive to avoiding that shape. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
