Penelope Jane can now 'Put her hands up and walk away from the Puzzle!!'  It's finished!  :-)

1,000 pieces each one smaller than a 5c coin, fiddlier than a... a... a...  piece of string???  Very fiddly anyway.

Now I can get back to living my life!  Thanks Marilyn it was a lot of fun, I really enjoyed it even if I did get a bit over obsessed with it.

Yesterday was a really busy 'out and about' day but I managed to get some holes filled while watching telly last night.

Lots done now but I have done other stuff as well today, I've slept in, dressed, had breakfast, gone shopping, went to Library, put away shopping, cooked lunch, taken a couple of phone calls, checked the emails and FB, made a double quantity of Pea and Ham Soup... see...  I haven't been puzzling all day... not  ALL Day :-)  

P.S.  I even took this photo and put it on my Blog!

Day One.

I found this 'World's Smallest 1,000 Piece Puzzle' on the first weekend of December last year... in my Fridge... yes I found it nicely wrapped up...  in my Refrigerator!    That day had been very hot, 35c in fact, and there were 23 SCQuilters locked up in my home celebrating Christmas, it being far too hot to be outside.

A very nicely written card accompanied this Puzzle but the gift giver didn't sign the card.

Now I had my suspects and I'd garnered a few hints from others but I had to play this game as it had started so....   I bided my time and played without letting on I was playing... So last Saturday I invited a couple of SCQuilter friends for a bit of a sit and sew and outed my chief suspect who had really given herself away last time I saw her... Marilyn tried to look innocent and the others gathered had no idea what the heck was going on but in a flash I unwrapped the puzzle and three two of us got stuck into it... for a little while at least, there is only so long a person can look at these little pieces without going round the bend!!

Top photo is what Marilyn and Liz put together and below is what I managed to do yesterday... I wonder how long it will take, it's slow work so far but I'm loving it and isn't it a wonderful picture!

P.S.   I'm sure there are lots of pieces missing already  :-)


Day Two.
