I'm Donnalouise - a puzzled puzzler puzzling puzzles who's practicing for the World Jigsaw Puzzle Championships in Spain this September - as well as for the National Australian competition in November! I did two speed runs with Wendy practicing as a pair - our first time doing so together. Then I tried the shuffle-as-you-build method. And finally I had a little fun testing out my memory theory on a 300 piece puzzle. What do you think - should you build the more difficult or easier sections of a jigsaw puzzle first? Enjoy!!

I just thought of something while answering comments - If you don't finish the puzzle in the allotted competition time, they count the number of pieces you have assembled as your score. So probably best to do the easier sections first to have more pieces done. What do you think? Thanks so much for watching! Please consider subscribing 💜🧩

Doing the hard parts first sounds good in theory - but when you struggle doing your regular method at least you know you will be done. You are coming down the home stretch. Imagine getting hung up say in the sky

Another thought about pairs and teams, that I might mention here: Karen from Karen Puzzles once mentioned that the strongest puzzler from the team should do the edge. I do not know her reasoning (finish the edge as fast as possible since it gives structure to the whole solving process?) but one could also argue the other way (the edge is often the easiest part of the puzzle, thus a less experienced solver may also tackle it)...

I did the dandelions puzzle, but not speed puzzling it, but in two sittings. I didn't think it was that difficult. The grass parts were challenging, but I was looking for the parts with flower stems in them and did those first and than fill in the rest. It probably took me 3-4 hours 😂 so you are golden!

The "shuffle method" is my go-to puzzling style. It's fun, chill and just like a treasure hunt trying to find the right pieces! :D

We are not speed puzzlers but we have a suggestion re competition; do the easiest bits first to get as much done as possible in the set time, you'll have more time for the difficult bits.

This video was awesome. I love Wendy and I love when you have a couple of puzzles to show. Also the sunflowers puzzle looks like torture. 😂

Any 500pc puzzle completed in qualifying time is good!! As far as hard vs easy first, personally I do the easy parts first so I have something to build off of. There was a US competition in San Diego, CA and most people worked the obvious parts first, the red house, the sun, the letters. Again, something to build off of. Regardless, you seem to have realistic goals for Spain, trying your best to do well, but going with a great attitude to enjoy every minute!!

If a puzzle has a very difficult part you can choose whether you get despaired in the beginning or in the end. 🙂The only thing that might cool your nerves is reminding yourself that all others will struggle with this part as well...

Hi !

Hello lovely 😊 Congratulations on your new times and it was so good to see Wendy again! Janette is very good in speed puzzling and since you are pairs together with her I believe you have a very good chance to win! I will cheer for you 🥳 Here are a few tips you might find useful:

I'm so enjoying your videos! I'm a puzzler myself and you remind me of me! (Except I don't refer to the box as much haha!) I'd really love to try speed puzzling too! I've just begun my very first 3,000 piecer! And it's tough just to finish the sorting! I do sometimes find if there's a tough section, I do end up saving it to last because there are fewer pieces to pull from. Every other piece is in it's place so you're only working from a smaller pool. But in a pairs situation, you could split the work so one person does the tough stuff while the other focuses on the easy stuff! I hope that helps! Good luck!

Quando eu fazia meus quebra cabeças eu começava pelas partes mais difíceis. Como a Wendy disse, no final estamos mais cansadas.

@maryjaneellinger1783 Год назад

Love your videos! I dump the pieces in a cake pan and pull the edge pieces and the pieces of a large item in the puzzle-often the sky.

@Kotuku

Good work Wendy - she's really coming along! I want to try the grassy one!

Vesna from Puzzling Happiness has done the jigsaw with the dandelions and I think she found it difficult. I don't think I would get on with a shuffle method. I like to get all the pieces out so that I can see them all.😊

@supercheekykiwi Год назад

I had no idea you were in NZ. welcome. great video.

@stewarth

Easy bits first. Get those pieces out of the pile, so you have a clearer field when you're trying to tackle the harder bits.

@LJG7654 Год назад

I'm not a speed puzzler, so I can take breaks between hard sections, but I tend to leave them to the end. There are less pieces to deal with and have to try in each spot. I did notice you left the dark border almost to the end; I think I would have gotten the border done as much as possible first to help with placing pieces.

Ah yes, Dandelions at Sunset! 😅🙈 I filmed myself doing it for my Saturday puzzling vlog some time ago and oh the struggle! I got the sky, the bright colored grass and the flowers done in 1 h 25 min, but the dark grass...... It took a while longer! 😂 1 h 55 min to be exact, so 3 h 20 min in total. But I liked the first part of the puzzle! 😄 And you did really well!! ❤️
