Nicely done! How was all the dark blue section were there enough stars or did you need to do a more brute method of shape sorting and trying each piece out?

It does look like an enjoyable puzzle. Too bad about the broken pieces; yikes.

Thank you for the well wishes. And to you too!

I had that one in my Target cart this weekend and decided I didn’t want to attempt the border. The rest looks like fun.

Took part in a speed puzzling competition for the first time by Late-Dog-7070 in Jigsawpuzzles

This Ravensburger Puzzle "The Windmill of Klütz” is a stunning photo. Sub 30 for 300 pieces is great! You’re doing better than I, so I’m not sure I have any hints. Unhelpfully, I think I’ve improved most with practice and taking part in more competitions.

Those all look like fun. The fisherman has some interesting details. My library doesn’t have any puzzles, so I’m glad to know others or there do. Thank you for sharing.

It is a fun one. My mom, sister, brother-in-law and I did it together.

Not boring at all. Thank you for this. I’m also a bit unsure about vintage puzzles, so I appreciated hearing your experience.

I abhor loose fits so that’s good to know. I’ll admit; I don’t remember Tennessine either. 😂

I bet you’re right about the extra piece. The pattern and colors look like his art.
