Two weeks ago we realised we needed to cancel our holiday. On the Sunday afternoon I decided to do a jigsaw to cheer myself up. A few months back, my lovely BIL Kevin had given me some puzzles which had belonged to his late Mum, Ruth. I chose this Angela Harding 500 piece square one.
It was fun, but challenging.
It took a few evenings, and I was glad I'd used my felt mat so I could roll it up and put it somewhere safe when the family arrived.
Once it was finished Bob said how much he loved the picture, and I did too. It shows two beautiful Irish Hares on Rathlin Island [Details here] We decided to frame it. A couple of coats of Ravensburger Puzzle Conserver, and a spare picture frame and here it is on the wall. Thank you Kevin, I love it!
I gave this jig saw to my daughter for her birthday and she completed it back in the summer and loved it. Angela Harding’s work is always a joy. Sandra.

DeleteA beautiful picture of hares. My sister's house overlooks fields and sightings of hares is common. An artist friend of ours drew a wonderful picture of a hare in pencil and we gave it to her for her 70th birthday. They are quite magical. Regards Sue H
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous gift
DeleteAngela Harding was on Desert Island Discs last week I think it was although I only caught part.
ReplyDeleteLovely jigsaw. I'm struggling with my October one.
