ONLY A QUILTER...... Only a quilter would spend hours sewing several hundred buttons on a quilt to embellish it, but wouldn't take five minutes to replace a button  on a pair of pants.

Only a quilter would put hundreds of dollars worth of fabric into her fabric stash because she might find a use for it sometime, but wouldn't replace a 50-cent needle on her sewing machine.

Only a Quilter would use freezer paper in the production of something to keep someone warm.

Only a Quilter would make a special quilt to give to her son, who would then have to attend quilt shows just to see it.

FOUR TYPES OF "BONE"

There are four types of bones that tend to exist in every organization:

First, there are wishbones.  These individuals spend most of their time wishing others would do the work.  Ironically if they spent as much time working as they do wishing, valuable work would get done.

Then we have jawbones.  Needless to say, these people spend a lot of time talking about the work that needs to  be done but never get anything done.

The knucklebones love to knock what everyone else is doing.  These people usually quit working as soon as they find a job.  Reason?  They pour all their efforts into criticizing others.

The back bones are the productive bones.  They get the work done and aren't concerned with credit.

[Editor's note:  HEY!!! There's a fifth!!! - The FUNNY BONE - the one who is always cracking the jokes!]
