yellow submarine, it's a small world., Rudolph the red nose reindeer, bicycle built for two

ABSOLUTELY !!!!!
I'll add - Yellow Submarine, Blue Suede Shoes, The Unicorn Song....

Rag Doll, deuces wild, angel, by Aerosmith.
Food on the table, mountain music, by Alabama
Wind beneath my wings, Chapel of love, the Rose, by Bette Midler
In love with my car, Hammer to fall by Queen come to mind....

I would make a block or quilt I wanted and then find a song to match. I love the website paperprincess provided. Many ideas popped into my head. I would not do all that work for something I didn't like or couldn't use. That's why I would do one I wanted first and then choose the song. Call me lazy and selfish!

OK, it is time to clear this up, especially if one is going to make a quilt of this. Is the flying people eater, the color purple? Or is this a flying people eater (of unspecified color) that eats purple people?

But I must say the above suggestion of flying purple people eater put an instant visual in my head that made me giggle.[/QUOTE]

What about a tumbler, and call it Red Solo Cup

About this one. A White sportscoat and a Pink Carnation. How much is that doggie in the window.

Now these two songs really date me. I remember when my younger first cousin's favorite song was "How Much Is That Doggie In The window", she was only two. "A White Sportscoat and a Pink Carnation by Marty Robbins was one of my mother's favorite songs.

I have always thought that the people eater was the color purple or in my mind anyway.

I betcha if we each made a flying purple people eater quilt there would be sssssssssoooooooooo much variation...

Song has been chosen, but I thought of

Old man river
Amerca, the beautiful

Re: all the purple people eater questions. Here are the lyrics:

"I said Mr Purple People Eater what's your line?
He said eating purple people and it sure is fine
But that's not the reason that I came to land
I wanna get a job in a rock 'n roll band"

So I guess in theory he could be any color you want, but I've always thought of him as being purple.

I guess it pays to read the posts to the end. You may learn something new. Not very important, but interesting.

I like Carole King's "Our House" Our house is a very very very fine house. With 2 cats in the yard, life used to be so hard. Now everything is easy cause of you........

"Love Letters in the Sand" also gives lots of block possibilities.

This is a fun challenge.

How about;
"I'll give you a daisy a day dear".by Hank Snow.o
"How much is that doggy in the window?"
"Summertime and the living is easy"
"True Colours"
"There ain't nobody here but us chickens"
Okay I could go on but I'll stop know. what a fun idea!

What a wonderful world by Louis Armstrong could be very dynamic.

Interesting posts. Can't wait to see resulting quilt.

TY all for such wonderful ideas. I will post when I get mine done. You guys are the best!!

I have fabric with clock faces on it I have been saving to do Jim Croce's Time In A Bottle. There are lots of Jar and bottle patterns on line. There is also a line in it about a box full of wishes, I'm still working on that.

I just think this idea based on a song would make a great theme for a challenge block for a quilt show.
Beth...LOVE love Time in a bottle :o)

The song "Happy".......
