Better pictures of the puzzle sampler

I woke up this morning and realized that some sections of the puzzle sampler draft look identical, because of my choice of colors for that draft.  Here is a better rendition:

And here is a closeup (click to see the full version), so you can see what’s going on.  The first four puzzle pieces are a single weft, the next six are all combinations of two wefts, and the last four are three wefts on top.  Should make for interesting weaving – if I choose my colors carefully!
