Six New Quilt Themed Jigsaw Puzzles

Enjoy quilts even if you aren’t in your sewing room.  What a relaxing way to spend a hot summer afternoon, or a cool summer evening. 

 

 

Measuring Up features two adorable kitties nestled in their basket amidst all the sewing notions.  Measuring 20″ x 27″ this puzzle by Anne Mortimer has 1,000 pieces.

  

 

A quilt made of Garden Path blocks is hanging on the line with a garden in the background.  Rows of harvest ready vegetables are watched over by a friendly scarecrow.   Rebecca Barker connects the scenery in her art with the quilt that is featured. 

The Quilt Barn is where I want to shop . . . fresh fruits and vegetables and quilts all in one old barn.  Quilts are displayed inside and out and they fill the pick up truck – GREAT use of a truck, don’t you think?!   A cardinal watches the activity as he is perched on a wood fence that’s covered in a beautiful flowering vine.  This puzzle is by Kay Lamb Shannon, measures 18″ x 24″ and has 500 pieces.

Doug Knuttson created this Perfect Setting of two love birds perched on their charming little house in the midst of a rose garden with a wedding ring quilt in the background.  Awwwww.  He DID promise her a rose garden.

This scene of a Country Autumn day by Nancy Wernersbach, with a pieced and appliqued quilt hanging on the clothesline, is filled with detail. A dog and a couple of kittens are lounging in the front yard, flowers are all around, pumpkins are ready, a basket of apples sits at the foot of the porch and a curtain blows in the breeze.   Don’t you just want to settle into the rocker or set on the steps a while?

Two boys play with The Family Wagon in the foreground, as mom and daughter hang quilts on the line along with the rest of the day’s laundry.  Tom Antonishak is the artist that created this 19″ x 30″ puzzle with 1,000 pieces.

Choose a puzzle, set up the card table, make a pitcher of lemonade, gather family and enjoy a few hours of conversation as you all work on a pretty puzzle.
