I used to do it all the time. I even do my friend’s puzzles for her to hang in her house. What I did was to seperate the pieces by their shapes and place them in bags. It was much easier that way than separating them by colors.

My husband would separate the pieces by colour tones/shades and put them in different plastic bags; then he begins this “jeu de patience” by connecting the edged pieces of the frame. He loves the challenge of connecting 1,000pcs in 3 days (after work hours only)coming back often to the board to look and put in a few pieces or so. This is also a challenging game of fun for others(not me,ouf)and I’m glad this hasn’t been taken over by the high tech games that flood the markets now.

So what to do when you’re at sea for 7 days straight … I spent most of my time in the “puzzle room” where random passengers could come in throughout the week and just piece together bits and bobs every now and then.

It kept me occupied all right, but the patience required for these jigsaw puzzles leave them best reserved for long leisurely vacations.
