This is one of the most enjoyable beautiful puzzles I've done. The quilt itself is a marvel and the story behind it wonderful. The different fabric patterns made it interesting to solve as a puzzle. I thought the outlined squares would make it easier but actually made it harder. I found solving it a good challenge.
This puzzle, only 300 pieces, was still wonderful. To realize this is an actual quilt, made in the 1860's, is remarkable. Might drive to Nebraska to see it.
Fun to do, but medium-hard. Only picture is on the cover. Medium size pieces that stay together, but tear down beautifully. Enjoy.
Enjoyed completing this puzzle. It’s unusual and I like the content and the style
