At the 2026 USA Jigsaw Nationals in Atlanta, more than 100 teams raced to complete two 1,000-piece puzzles in under 90 minutes. What might seem like a quiet hobby has evolved into a fast-growing, high-intensity competition drawing thousands from across the country.

As speed puzzling gains popularity, it’s part of a larger comeback of tactile hobbies like crochet, coloring and needlepoint offering a break from screens and a way to build community.

AJC Associate Producer Jordan Pettiford takes you inside the action and the growing community behind the sport.
