Excellent image. Somewhat difficult with all those green/white areas, but logically solvable with patience. Another excellent image. Keep up the good work!

I started in the lower left corner with the blue, and as soon as I saw the horn I knew the rhyme! It did need a lot of patience, but a very nice finished product. Thank you!

This was really a great puzzle and a great image as well. It looked a little intimidating at first because it is big, but once you started to solve it, it came together pretty easy. Thanks for the puzzle. I like this series.

Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn.
The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the corn.
Where is the boy that looks after the sheep?
"He's under the haycock, fast asleep."
Will you wake him? "No, not I;
For if I do, he'll be sure to cry."

thank you for another one :)

Love this series! And excellent work! Don't know why I had so much trouble with this one -- I started over 4 times from almost completes! That last corner above the cow did me in every time! HaHa! C.

Far more complicated than needed. Patience was needed but it was very solvable.

This is very cute, but I can't help but notice that the haystack appears to have been dropped on the boy, instead of him sleeping under it. Lol, it's quite humorous.

Love the concept of this puzzle, but way too tedious. I had to come back to it several times to complete.

All of these nursery rhymes start to run together.

Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn.
Your house is on fire, and your children are gone.

@12: That shouldn't be funny, but I laughed anyway.

It gets worse.

Old Mother Hubbard
Went to her cupboard
Eating her Christmas pie.
Along came a spider
And sat down beside her
And said, "What a good boy am I!"
