Finally finished the Vasily Kandinsky "Variegation in the Triangle" jigsaw puzzle.

"A triangle provokes a live emotion because it is itself a living being. It is the artist who kills it if he applies it mechanically, without inner direction.”
Vasily Kandinsky, 1935

#JigsawPuzzles #Kandinsky

500 piece jigsaw puzzle of Vasily Kandinsky "Variegation in the Triangle" 1927
2025-05-15

Another two completed - no missing pieces! Now available, free to good home/homes. Just DM me an appropriate address. If you want to ‘pay’, please make a donation to a charity of your choice in your area.
Each is 1,000 pieces. The great wave was very difficult indeed. Only the yellow boats with the skulls in them were relatively easy.
The second one is a murder mystery one, with no picture. So I don’t want to spoil it by showing you the completed puzzle. The puzzle bears no relation to the pix on the lid of the box shown. There is a story book with it, which gives you clues and may assist in assembling it.
I actually found it much easier than The Great Wave.

Jigsaw of a very famous Japanese artwork called The Great Wave.
The characters are in the upper left, in a white vertical box.
The general background is  kind of off while-beige colour with random water droplets on it.
There is a great towering stylised on the left of the picture, with a smaller one in front of it. Mount Fuji appears to be in the background to the lower right. On these stormy seas there are there are three long yellow wooden boats, each with a crew of several skulls.Box for The Great Wave. It’s a Eurographics puzzle, and no two pieces are the same, as it’s smart cut. It’s just as well, as this is a challenging puzzle anyway. One thousand pieces. CompletelBox for a Murder Mystery puzzle of 1000 pieces. The lid of the box shows the Deerstalker cap, glasses and pipe which are icons of Sherlock Homes, the Detective. The box includes a short story which you can solve to make the jigsaw if you wish. There is no picture for the jigsaw, so you make it ‘blind’ or gain some clues from the story.

Arboretum, 1000 pieces, Renegade Game Studios. Time 10:30.

I figured I'd combine my love of boardgames and puzzles, and that the puzzle would be pleasantly tricky. Which it was, until I got to the tree in the center, which was brutal. It had a lot of ambigious fits/matches, several of which I later had to pull out, and in the end the last piece did not quite fit in the last place. Couldn't spot the misplaced piece, maybe one of you could? #jigsawpuzzles

Completed jigsaw puzzle of the game box cover for thr game Arboretum, with a large Jacaranda in the center, game icons in a rainbow underneath, and complicated blue and white patterns elsewhere. One piece does not fit in its spot.

Official update on our #SpeedPuzzling shenanigans:

We came nowhere near last! Shocked ourselves with 1 hour 10 minutes!

At one point I ended up in the loos with two well-known puzzletubers, and I also got recognised from YT as well (hi Chloe if you ever see this toot!).

Everyone was very friendly and my puzzle piece earrings were complimented by a stranger literally about ten seconds after we walked in the venue.

Ours was the bottom one in this pic, teapots was the solo puzzle, and the other one is just one I fancied as a souvenir because why not.

Great day!

#JigsawPuzzles #UKNationals

Three jigsaw puzzle boxes laid out on the floor, with my lanyard from UK Nationals lying on top. One is a collection of colourful teapots on a white background, one is a busy but very well-illustrated crazy harbour scene, and the third is a circle puzzle with signs of the zodiac in a gradient of colours.Photo of the hectic pairs puzzling area at UK Nationals today with a big red arrow drawn on top to point at me.

At work, we teachers have a table in the lounge area upon which we have a puzzle. We all work on this puzzle to varying degrees, and whoever puts in the final piece takes a picture and shares it with all of us.

I started a puzzle here at home during winter break, and got the frame in place. Today, I pulled it out (it's in one of those roll-up storage things), and wow, working on a 1,000 piece puzzle on your own is ... slow ... by comparison.

It will be pretty when it's finished.

Mylopronesta by Rex Ray (Pomegranate - 1000 pcs)

Pomegranate puzzles are always such a joy to work with - good snap to the pieces, almost no dust. I was lucky to get this one as a gift. :) The colors made it impossible to sort, but it was still fun to put together.

Puzzle check. Knocked out this 500-piece butterfly puzzle in a single sitting.

Someone needs to get me off of Vinted, tbh.

But in the meantime, so many new puzzles to practise on!

(Also today I did a science experiment to see what would happen if you eat out of date potato salad. Friends, I would not recommend.)

#JigsawPuzzles #SpeedPuzzling #Vinted #Thrifting

Five 500 piece jigsaw puzzle boxes arranged on a wooden floor.  There's a Greek taverna, a wildflower garden, and by sheer coincidence the other three are all London themed.Three more puzzles, no London themes this time. Instead we have a two-pack of local Yorkshire towns, a tabby kitten in a kitchen, and a photo of New York.

🕹️ Title: Tetzle

📖 Our entry: lebottinlinux.vps.a-lec.org/LO

🥁️ Update: 3.0.3
⚗️ Hotfix 🐞️
📌️ Changes: gottcode.org/tetzle/
🦣️ From: mastodon.social/@holarse/11412

🕶️ A view of its UI, with a window showing the model to be reconstituted (a screenshot of Minetest), and in the background another window with the parts (the tetrominoes) to be assembled (by drag & drop). At the top of this 2nd window are the menus.

📚️ Tetzle is a libre, multi-platform puzzle game whose pieces are Tetrominoes (geometric figures made up of 4 blocks). This port offers the possibility of using any image to produce the puzzle. Cutting ranges from 10 pieces (default) to almost 1000 pieces (slider selection). The playing surface and window can be extended by drag-and-drop. A help function automatically attaches pieces when they are correctly presented. Saving is automatic and the player can navigate between several puzzles as they are solved. Excellent!

We’ve been played for fools.

“Fun fact: 1000 piece puzzles don't contain exactly 1000 pieces; most are 1008 or 1026 to make the correct shape.”

Fowl Language, Hacche Retail, 1000 pieces. Time 5:10 (redo)

Once again about 2 hours faster than my first attempt. The first time I tried starting with the text which was a mistake - the letters are too big for that. This time I did the obvious and started with the birds. #jigsawpuzzles

Completed jigsaw puzzle with nine illustrations of birds whose names can be read as making sexual refrrences, like "Bearded Tit" and "Southern Screamer".

New personal best for a first try!

(1 hour 30, enough for 16th out of 16, but shush what matters is I'm improving)

#JigsawPuzzles #SpeedPuzzling #Harrogate

Completed jigsaw puzzle featuring an illustrated scene set in Harrogate, looks like the 60s. There are a few colourful cars in the foreground, buildings and trees around the edges, but the majority of the puzzle is taken up with a large domed building on a street corner.
