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.

"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.

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.
