Uploaded by EveryPieceCounts on Aug 6, 2011
Kaitlin Reilly, resident of Northern NJ has completed the 'World's Largest Jigsaw Puzzle' (24,000 pieces and 70 sq. ft.), entitled, "Life", to raise funds for Autism Research and Autism Awareness. Reilly, having been working on jigsaw puzzles for the last seven years felt that this was the biggest challenge yet. She is asking that individuals, families, and friends that feel strongly about this cause donate $1 towards the puzzle and her project. She hopes to ultimately raise $24,000 for Autism Speaks, the world's largest Autism advocacy organization.

@RodrigoZanattasilva I do not know why I keep all the pieces in the box. I have done it like this for the last three times I have done the puzzle. When i put my hands in the box and move the pieces around I have certain pieces I am looking for and only those stand out, all the rest are completely invisible. It is hard to explain, but it works for me :)

@jmw4004 Haha - surprised someone saw that. Well, I was in the car, when my brother was trying to teach me how to work the GoPro camera, so the camera ended up taking a picture. We decided to keep the image in the video instead of deleting it, didn't really think anyone would notice. Good catch!

@chipotlemonkey I have done the puzzle three previous times and in all those times I have lost a few pieces, luckily all I have to do is fill out a form with the piece I need and the company sends me the piece. But this time, I did not lose any pieces!

@4Shadowz Thank you!

@crazyovergreen It took about 150 hours to complete the puzzle! And it does take a lot of patience but I really enjoy it. Thanks!

@alexbui Since this was my 4th time completing it, I created a project called Every Piece Counts. My mission was to raise $24,000 for Autism Speaks while completing the World's Largest Jigsaw Puzzle (24,000 pieces). To this day, I have raised a little over $6,000 for Autism. My plan was to find a hospital, school, or some other building where the puzzle could be on display and enjoyed by many, but we still have not been able to find a home for the puzzle yet. But I hope we'll find one soon!

@flanflan210 Haha - that would have been funny. I think it is really funny how my tea cup is always moving around the table, it is always somewhere different :)
