Was there a time when you were looking for buttons as embellishment for a quilt? Maybe that started it?

To stop the nonsense ... my suggestion isn't so lovingly-kind as JWQs ... Put all the buttons into a bowl. Stir them up. Fill up jars with them. And give a jar to each of those who have given to you.
Think they may get the hint? :)
