i'm working on the 240 piece classic now.
did you know if you click on the timer on left, it stops.
then starts again soon as you pick up a piece or click anywhere on the
puzzle.
means you can go make a cuppa or gives you time to think.
ok ok, so its a cheat, big deal.
its mine and i'll cheat if i want to. so there.

Yes, it did! I changed it to 48-piece classic, but I don't think I'll tell
you how long it took me to complete it! I think I should try again.

no idea how long that took you to quilt it but i'd think you and Karen both
should have few problems getting it done in record time.
try change cut and see how much better you get each time.
click on timer at left and it stops while you think or get a cuppa or
whatever.

When I tried the 48-piece classic the second time, I cut nearly two minutes
from my original time. Then, for kicks, I went to a 20-piece classic and did
it in 59 seconds. You're right - you'd think Karen and I would remember
where each and every block was, but my memory just doesn't always oblige!
