I've been hooked on these colouring apps for years! I have 2 or three favourites one of which has a classic section with lots of different artworks/old masters. They can have up to 200 colours so are very challenging, but the sense of achievement when you finish one is fantastic!!

Almost completed ‘tapestry’ hopefully attached…… just a few odd squares to do and the top corner.

I’ve started one and I’m enjoying it, thanks for your recommendation.

Cross-Stitch World is one that I do, it’s free, but you can buy extra ‘tapestries’ if you want to.

I can’t get my head around how to do these.

Just dab your finger on the colour ( or letter) the squares on the tapestry will go grey, just touch the square or squares that go grey.

No but I love the jigsaws - no missing pieces or tables out of action for weeks!

Another online Jigsaw player.

Like you say, no hunting for pieces or a table out of use for the duration, I find them very relaxing.

Exactly! OK I don’t do 1500 ones on my iPad, but who cares?

These are all good.

Oh yes! Pixel Art is my favourite.

I've been doing them for about 5 years I reckon

I have chronic pain and the related insomnia and find these apps just help me cope.

I think you would like the colouring apps if you enjoy the jigsaws.

I was introduced to colouring apps by our granddaughter a few months ago, now I’m hooked on them. Anyone else tried them?
