    Every New year I buy a 1000 piece puzzle to work on. I chose one this year that is very hard of a mountain scene. I love puzzles but this one I am working on is going to take a while.

    I love puzzles too. My favorite is Thomas Kinkaid. I keep one going all the time. I will quilt for a while, then work the puzzle, then read. I also love to cook, but have recently developed diabetes, so I am looking for new recipes I can eat. Anyway, by having so many things going at once, I never get bored. Oh and I also love TV (especially the Food Channel and Lifetime Movie channel)

    I love to do puzzles! Just found one before Christmas in the thrift store that's a big quilt (only 1.00 on sale day!). I'm going to finish it and one day hang it in my sewing space. Don't really have a space right now just use my kitchen table.

When I was growing up Me, Mom, and my 2 sisters did puzzles as a cheap intertainment as we were a poor family.. we love doing them.. I was good with the 1st graders while I was a paraprofessional helping those that seemed to have the same problem I did... No problem with reading I exhaled in that... In 2nd grade I could read 3rd and 4th grade books and comprehend what I read.. This should actuall be another thread.. :lol: I love to piece more than doing whole quilts.. I also like to do my own thing instead of following a pattern. although I do follow some patterns.Better at math now than then. Just don't give me anything with Algebra and I will manage.... :wink:
