Michelle MayWe puzzled with the best in the UK! <a href="https://makertube.net/w/bdJg4FKaCZLp4ZhUP5BYMV" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://makertube.net/w/bdJg4FKaCZLp4ZhUP5BYMV</a>

Michelle / The Giddy StitcherOfficial update on our <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/SpeedPuzzling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpeedPuzzling</a> shenanigans:We came nowhere near last! Shocked ourselves with 1 hour 10 minutes!At one point I ended up in the loos with two well-known puzzletubers, and I also got recognised from YT as well (hi Chloe if you ever see this toot!). Everyone was very friendly and my puzzle piece earrings were complimented by a stranger literally about ten seconds after we walked in the venue.Ours was the bottom one in this pic, teapots was the solo puzzle, and the other one is just one I fancied as a souvenir because why not.Great day!<a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/JigsawPuzzles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JigsawPuzzles</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/UKNationals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UKNationals</a>

Michelle / The Giddy StitcherWhat started as a joke has somehow turned into me competing in the pairs division of the UK Jigsaw Puzzle National Championship tomorrow!Surprisingly unbothered by nerves, although I do hope we can avoid coming dead last. Anything else will be considered a great success.I made a video all about training so far, so if you like endless timelapses of people being bad at puzzles you can see that at <a href="https://makertube.net/accounts/michellemay" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@michellemay</a> (or on my YT).But the actual event itself will be livestreamed at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@UKJPA/streams" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@UKJPA/streams</a> from 11:45am UK time, so maybe you'll be able to spot me in the background somewhere.Wish us luck! 😅 (Bonus pic of a very un-speedy puzzle I did this week, it smells vaguely of peppermint and makes me want to go back to Iceland)<a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/JigsawPuzzle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JigsawPuzzle</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/SpeedPuzzling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpeedPuzzling</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/UKNationals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UKNationals</a>

Michelle MaySpeedpuzzling my way to UK Nationals! <a href="https://makertube.net/w/ppTPR9hN37acjCtSHuiXqy" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://makertube.net/w/ppTPR9hN37acjCtSHuiXqy</a>

Michelle / The Giddy StitcherNew personal best for a first try!(1 hour 30, enough for 16th out of 16, but shush what matters is I'm improving)<a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/JigsawPuzzles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JigsawPuzzles</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/SpeedPuzzling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpeedPuzzling</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/Harrogate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Harrogate</a>

Michelle / The Giddy StitcherFinally finished my Christmas jigsaw! Only 1000 pieces, but it still took me over six hours to put together. Busy puzzles are not my forte.Joke's on everyone else though, there are no other times for this one entered on <a href="https://myspeedpuzzling.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://myspeedpuzzling.com</a> so I'm automatically world champ! 🏆 As you can see the light in here isn't ideal with all that glare, so winter puzzles are harder than summer ones. Added a pic of the box so you can actually tell what you're looking at 😅 <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/didathingclub" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@didathingclub</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/DidAThingClub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DidAThingClub</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/JigsawPuzzle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JigsawPuzzle</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/SpeedPuzzling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpeedPuzzling</a>

Michelle / The Giddy StitcherAn even less aesthetic photo from me than usual, but I've somehow entered into the UK Jigsaw Puzzle Nationals in April so am busy packing this lot to go visit my pairs partner this weekend and get some solid practise in.Wish us luck at both the puzzles and the not wanting to throttle each other by ten minutes in 😅 <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/JigsawPuzzle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JigsawPuzzle</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/JigsawPuzzles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JigsawPuzzles</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/SpeedPuzzling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpeedPuzzling</a>

Michelle / The Giddy StitcherMy two <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/SpeedPuzzling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpeedPuzzling</a> entries for ones that weren't already in the database have finally been accepted, hooray! Presumably they had a rush on after last weekend.Not that the world of jigsaws moves fast in general, it seems. I've tried to ask a question of the UK Association both on their news post and by emailing directly and as far a I can tell neither of those messages have even been seen yet.Gah, how am I supposed to get unhealthily obsessed if you won't give me detailed info in a timely manner?! 😅 Anyway here's me 😎 <a href="https://myspeedpuzzling.com/en/player-profile/01920b37-21c4-725e-83aa-69cbcdb6d9ae" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://myspeedpuzzling.com/en/player-profile/01920b37-21c4-725e-83aa-69cbcdb6d9ae</a>

Michelle / The Giddy StitcherI swear normal craft content will resume soon. But also, look at this eclectic mix of 500pc puzzles I scored at the charity shop!Yes that Jungle one is another one of the same set as the puzzle I did yesterday, and I'm very excited to see if I can do it faster. That one is also brand new and unopened as far as I can tell, so even if the other two are missing bits it was still worth £7 🎉That's my weekend sorted when I should be finishing knitting projects...<a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/JigsawPuzzle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JigsawPuzzle</a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/SpeedPuzzling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpeedPuzzling</a>
