I walked in the store to buy some milk. Look what I saw. This cat pillow alone on the shelf. While I don’t have a cat, it caught my attention. The shape, the eyes. It’s fun!
I wonder if a dog might attack it thinking it was a “real” cat. I don’t have a dog either, so cannot test it out.
Sometimes in our busy, rush, rush, rush day, we were meant to STOP and SMILE!
What’s made YOU stop and slow down lately?
I haven’t done a jigsaw puzzle in a while. I hadn’t even thought of doing one, just busy with “other things.” So, I smiled when I saw this puzzle on the Clearance rack.
My first thought, the children’s book, “The Princess and the Pea.” What a cute idea to have a cat on top of a bunch of beautiful pillows. I love bright colors, so was attracted to this immediately. Another attraction was the size being rectangular versus square. I found that to be a challenge.
One thing though, the measurements. At 39 inches long, it takes up quite a bit of space on a dining table in an awkward way. A little bit shorter would have been better, but I don’t think puzzle makers take that into consideration. They are creators, right. They do what is visually appealing, leave technical issues to the puzzle maker purchaser. Fall in love with a puzzle and we can make it work!
Size aside, I’m looking forward to doing this puzzle. I smile every time I look at it. It’s just so colorful!
So, the BIG QUESTION — Do I start in the middle, do the border or the CAT FIRST??
Ah… the puzzle maker’s challenge!
