500+ piece puzzle
People who tried this
“Normally, I finish a 500 piece puzzle in less than a week, just by casually working on it in my spare time. However, after two weeks of dedicated effort, I had completed less than 10% of the Starry Night photomosaic. I was recovering from foot surgery, so I had plenty of time on my hands, but I couldn’t seem to make progress. In a one-hour puzzling session I might only connect five pieces. None of my usual strategies worked for this puzzle, and I was at a loss about what to do. For the first time in my puzzling career, I felt like giving up.”
