Stacked Jigsaw Puzzle

I have always loved to do jigsaw puzzles. I don't always have time to work on them but have loved to do them as far back as I can remember.   I especially like the unusual puzzles, a pile of jelly beans, a bunch of spools of thread surrounding a scissors,  scoops of ice-cream etc.

Imagine my delight when I saw this jigsaw puzzle in the Connecting Threads catalog.  Of course I ordered one and smiled as I opened the box the mailman brought to my door.  This is a 1000 piece puzzle called Stacked by Rebecca Barker.  The entire puzzle is a stack of quilts!!!  Beautiful, wonderful, some pieced, some appliqued,  folded and stacked quilts!!!  This 1000 piece gem is 20" x 27" and is made completely of recycled board and soy-based inks.

I am very anxious to open the box and begin assembling the pieces but I am trying to use my will-power and wait.  My sister is a quilter and likes to do jigsaw puzzles too so I will try to wait until her next visit.  It will be fun to visit and work on this puzzle together.

Happy Quilting,
