About my ratings

Perhaps because of my day job, I'm a tough rater. Everything 3/5 and above I consider worth the time and money. If I purchase on Etsy or a similar platform and the puzzle is as expected, I will give a top rating on the platform because of how seller ratings work, but here "as expected" is probably a 3/5 in most cases.

Nikki Cade Studio, World Map

 for Anthropologie, 600 pieces. We all have our lines where something goes from "challenging" to "I'm not having any fun and won't be any time soon." I'm reluctant to abandon a puzzle, and this one was certainly doable--the piece size and angle changed because of the map projection, so that would have guided assembly, and there were slight color variations in the oceans that probably could have helped too--but I've got a lot to do and I really didn't see putting the oceans together becoming fun for me. So I stopped. Piece thickness: hefty, a bit thicker than Liberty I think; solid though some of the edge pieces were very sliver-y in part due to the conceit of following the projection. 


And I'm done
