According to this article jigsaw puzzles:
1. exercise the left and right sides of your brain at once.
2. improve your short-term memory.
3. improve your visual-spatial reasoning.
4. are a great meditation tool and stress reliever.
5. are a great way to connect with family.
6. are a great for needed alone time.
I got back to my random strip piecing today. I like this color scheme so much that I'm going to turn it into a small art quilt giving me a chance to practice Maryline's technique before I make a larger multicolored one. I randomly laid out the strips and can see I need more skinny strips and a better balance of lights, darks, and golds. It's so easy to slice somewhere and add in another piece.
I pulled more scraps from my stash in Lexington and will do the same in Portland. I'll start pinning on a board at some point soon so I can stand back and make final decisions.
