Edit: SUCCESS!  The crazy beardling has begun a mysterious construction using, get this: 1 scrap of silk, and 40 pig bones

The little bugger needs a stack of cloth and bones.  I slaughtered a Boar for him, he picked up 9 bones and a piece of spider silk from Armok-knows where.  I have plenty of raw Pig Tails, and even braved the Unicorns to gather Rope Reed for him.  Farmers Workshop- process plants, Loom- Spin thread into cloth.  Problem is, I can't find the new cloth in my stocks menu anywhere, but the job is definitely being completed.  What am I missing here?

Highlights of this adventure:

Saving dwarves is not how Bay12 rolls.

Or you could set up a kickstarter or Justgiving page for this topic. Which would be more fun.

Maybe he wants silk cloth or yarn.

If all else fails:

are there any bones left? He may have used them all.
Try setting some shear animal tasks: at a farmer's workshop. Then you'll have a chance to make yarn. He may also want more spider silk, in which case a tunnel surgical strike might be the only option.

I chuckled   Was just taking the Haulers awhile, as the mood struck right in the middle of transitioning my fortress from Sedimentary to Igneous.  I have 10 Wool Cloths on hand, and 4 Pig Tail Cloths.  So either he wants more bones, which I can do, or he wants more silk, in which case my Moody Dwarf success rate becomes 0 for 2

Clothes of Cloths? Major distinction.

Just saw my spelling mistake (of) but decided that it's rather witty.
