Patchwork — 2000 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle

The colors and patterns of all of these puzzles are precisely up my alley and once I discovered them, I wanted to buy all of them before even trying them out. However, as I’m working on this first purchase, I’m discouraged by how interchangeable so many of the pieces are. The shapes are not as unique as preferred for that beautiful, obvious snap. Many times already, I have put pieces where I thought they go just to discover that it wasn’t as perfect of a fit as I originally thought and I’m having to inspect very closely to rearrange and decipher where they actually go. This has caused it to be less enjoyable. I regularly do puzzles and most often 2000 pieces. I’ll try another one but it’s frustrating enough that it may deter me from future purchases.

The puzzles from Elena Essex are amazing! A true joy! Love all the ones I have collected!

Very nice puzzle! Beautiful image. The pieces were a nice size. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is due to the fact the some pieces looked like the fit together- really really close - that parts of the puzzle had to be redone. I think some of the pieces were too similar. My family and I worked on it and enjoyed the time together.

I really like that you essentially get 13 puzzles in one because of the different sections. Plus, if you get tired of a color, you can just switch to one of the others!

Alles Prima. Danke

One of the funnest puzzles I've ever done. The different sections make it easy to sort and work one section at a time. I wish they offered more of their puzzles in a 2000 piece option.

This 2000 piece jigsaw is, in effect, 15 smaller jigsaws in one. I can imagine a family dividing it up by colours and working together and all having great fun over Christmas!
It comes with a very useful A3 sized image (much handier than using the image on the box).
I had great fun completing this and I can highly recommend it.
I do a great many jigsaws and this is the first one I have felt impelled to recommend.

I'm a huge fan of Elena Essex puzzles and was thrilled to see her launch a 2,000 piece puzzle. It offers the same vivid colors, nice fit, and visually alluring puzzling experience as her previous puzzles; however, because the pieces have such little variation in shape, it has MANY false fits (more than I've ever seen in a puzzle). This made some sections befuddling, especially the bottom left corner (black with a fox), but overall the puzzle was a delight to piece together. Very happy to have it in my collection.
