Still too early to tell, ICC, though I made some good progress today.

HC, you might need a bit of help from your family to finish it off (although having said that, I generally like to finish off puzzles by myself)...

Nice thought, KK, but it's only me and hubby and he's not got the patience for puzzles. I'd say I'm between 1/3 & 1/2 done about now. And I find there comes a "tipping point" about 3/4 of the way through, when after that it doesn't take nearly as long to finish as the first 1/4 did to complete.

And I finally found the last pieces to complete the border, too! Now it's just slogging away to bit by bit piece together the picture....

Thanks! I've come a long way and I expect to be finished within a few days. There's only about a half-dozen small sections that I have left to fill in.

You're right - it's now finished and I'm glad I'll soon take it apart, but for now I've left it complete on the table so I can admire my handiwork

I'll try, but I've never had much luck getting a decent photo of a completed puzzle - it seems like the flash always washes out the picture, but if I turn the flash off it comes out too dark.

...and now you aren't. By the way, I took a couple of pictures of the puzzle and I think they might have turned out OK. I'll be able to tell better once I get them uploaded to the computer; the screen on the camera is a bit small and crowded with icons to tell for sure.
