Super-dome Sunday Puzzle Assembly

I did my usual sorting routine.

  1. Sorting to locate all  the outside border pieces, while....
  2. Placing the pieces into the 'general-color' layout onto the Grateful House puzzle trays. These trays are 14" x 10" in a pack of 8. I can layout all the pieces easily IF I use the lid for the edge pieces. This example is using the Cobble Hill Brand puzzle at 1000 pieces and puzzle Size is 26.625" x 19.25".

The blue sky and dome were the most outstanding pieces so I started with those pieces. Next I tried to piece together the more larger objects and pieces of the same color. I wrestled with the roads the most. Once they were lined up the shapes of the pieces helped fill in the rest.
