The Beach Hut is a 1000-piece puzzle from Ravensburger, and the artist is Steve Read. This is part of their My Haven series. My friend Renee got this for me for Christmas. I was impressed because she picked out a puzzle that I really liked and also because it was complete despite coming used from a flea market.

I really enjoyed building this one. There were so many interesting objects in the image, and I found the colors very soothing. It was a pleasant experience all around, and I am always happy with the Ravensburger quality.

The Sewing Shed is a 1000-piece puzzle from Ravensburger, and the artist is Steve Read. I got this puzzle a few weeks ago from a friend of a friend who lives about an hour away. Shortly after, I received an envelope in the mail with several puzzle pieces – one for this puzzle and a few for the other puzzle he gave me. I was expecting that it might still be missing pieces, so I was pleasantly surprised when it ended up being complete. 

This was a nice challenge. A few areas were a bit dark, and I did have to sort by shape about two-thirds of the way through. But I love all the colorful fabrics and sewing notions, and I especially love the little cat curled up next to the sewing machine.
