Patchwork Pumpkin (323 Piece Shaped Wooden Jigsaw Puzzle)

Patchwork pumpkins appear when autumn shows its creativity with fabric; instead of the typical orange colour, these full-bodied gourds are adorned with faded floral patterns, gingham plaids, bits of velvet and at times even a little of old curtain material which has finally found a use. Each pumpkin, having twig stems and irregular seams, looks as if it has been carefully made by a woodland grandmother on a rainy afternoon. Putting patchwork pumpkins on the windowsill of a cottage at once gives the area a snug atmosphere. You won't have to rake the leaves, light a fire, or find out how to make sourdough. They can be placed alongside old books and mugs with chipped porcelain, creating the impression that the family are spending their evenings quilting, even though all they are actually doing is watching television and ordering food. Unlike real pumpkins, these never rot or draw in fruit flies. The most desirable patchwork pumpkins are a bit flawed—they can be lopsided, overstuffed and have buttons that don't match the rest. They are relaxed autumn decorations, content to stay in any position you place them and require no carving or refrigeration. Once winter arrives, all you have to do is keep them in a cupboard until the following year. This traditional adult pumpkin shaped wooden jigsaw puzzle is the perfect gift for wooden jigsaw puzzlers. It can be done time and again.
