2000 pieces jigsaw puzzle
June 2008 – July 2013
Bangalore

Kafi dino se ye puzzle mere pass tha 5 saal. Shaadi pe kafi gifts aaye the. Kuch gift voucher bhi mile the Gaurav ko. Gaurav mujhe bole ki voucher se kuch le lo… wo land mark ke the.

We were living in whitefield area after marriage and at that time there was no mall nearby and Landmark was in Forum Mall kormangala. And malls were new to me at that time. Kya loen samajh hi nahi aa raha tha. Tabhi meri nazar puzzles pe padi. Aur bachpan se hi mujhe puzzle banana me maza aata tha. Phir kya Gaurav ne 2000 piece ka puzzle le liye mere liya. Par jab I opened the box then I came to know the pieces are not only small but they are many. It will be my first experience with these puzzle and I got puzzle too how to make it. The dimension which was given was too big, and need a place where I can place the pieces and make it.

For some days went on separating the pieces took 4 bags and tired dividing left right top and bottom. It keep on going on and on and after that separated in all way which was good and easy. But it was not easy task.

Phir kya koi safe and badi jagha mil hi nahi rahi thi puzzle banana ke liye. Aur kuch mein office mein bhi busy ho gayi.
…….

After 5 year I again opened that box and this time we were in our new house with lots of space but now my challenge was to keep safe from vartika’s eye. As the pieces were very small and I can’t spare any piece to go off. So I found a place where I can make the puzzle as well as hide it when I am not working on it- carpet. I folded the carpet and in between the carpet I started 4^th April 2013.



Now the challenge was at what time can make the puzzle. During that time vartika’s summer camp started. Got some time in morning hrs and during her afternoon nap time.

Initial days were very tough. . After separating pieces also I faced lots of problem… started with making the boarder. Slowly slowly it started taking the shape.

There was a day when I hardly able to join few pieces and a day when many pieces got fixed.  Toughest part was the sky as all the pieces color where same and can be place in any direction… slowly slowly the day came when it got over. 10^th June 2013.

These are some pics I took while joining the pieces
