Crystal Lines, 3D puzzle

540 clear pieces--now that's a challenge, especially the pieces that were entirely clear and had to be slotted in by small differences between the near-uniform shapes; the plastic has a different feel when it fits in than regular cardboard or wood.  3/5

Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Bouquet in a Vase

460 pieces.  Repeating pattern in the pieces; a challenge in much of the puzzle, but became nearly impossible at the strip of black at the bottom.  3/5

Very very tiny pieces

finished, at larger than actual size

Lilies, John Allen

Liberty, 464 pieces.  Nice picture!  Would have liked it better if it had been shaped around the lilies instead of a standard rectangle. 3/5
