Cobble Hill 1000 Piece Puzzle - Country Diary: Summer - Sample Poster Included

I love these puzzles and I have one more to get, the winter one. I've enjoyed the three so far and the irregularity of the pieces is important to me along with the pleasing design. Not a lot of dead space.The colors are subtle in this one particularly, summer, and so far my least favorite, but I still have enjoyed it.

ARE THERE ANY LEFT OF THIS PUZZLE?

Lots of pieces but beautiful.

Cobble Hill. Random-cut. Poster included. 1,000 pieces. 676mm x 489mm. Average piece size 331mm2.Designed in Canada, manufactured in the USA. The puzzle board is only 1.8mm thick, yet the pieces still feel solid.The puzzle is random cut, yet the pieces still approximate the standard ribbon cut shapes. An analysis of a section with 109 pieces found that H-shapes predominated.Piece Shape No. in sample As %H shape (2 blanks on one axis and 2 tabs on the other) 62 56.9%L Shape (2 b and 2t with each axis having one of each) 3 2.8%Y shape (3 blanks and 1 tab)) 21 19.3%A shape (3 tabs and 1 blank) 19 17.4%S-shape (Specials - 3 connectors total) 3 2.8%+-Shape (4 tabs and no blanks) 1 0.9%Total no of pieces 109 100%Again, the pieces although nominally H-shapes etc. really varied quite a bit. No false fits were found when building.To build the puzzle, the pieces were sorted into:• Edges• Text• Birds or insects or structures• Flower blossoms• Leaves• OtherThe puzzle was then assembled in that order.In terms of difficulty, I rated the puzzle as two out of five – of normal difficulty, as almost all pieces could be placed by examining the poster. Only one piece found in the jigsaw was completely blank, all the rest had at least some part of a flower, leaf, insect etc. on them. This was a pleasant and relaxing puzzle with a high-quality illustration. The tranquillity of the illustration was calming. I rated the jigsaw as five out of five for entertainment.
