Designs by gibell
The puzzles here are my own designs unless noted.  The puzzles will arrive unassembled, you will have to figure out how to assemble them.  Painting these puzzles is not recommended because it will destroy the fit, for coloring I use fabric dyes.

All puzzles here were designed using open source software!
