“This guy, he can sew!” Clarice tells Crawford, as she realizes that Jame Gumb has dreams of making himself a “women’s suit.” Another repugnant way he puts his sewing skills to use? By making a quilt festooned with orange swastikas. He keeps this quilt next to another, very nice quilt, with a butterfly (we know how much he adores his transformative, winged insects).
He uses his Nazi quilt to hide his very big gun, a kiiinda phallic Colt Python. Buffalo Bill is nuts, is what I’m saying.

Just read the books. This conversation never occurred. It was only the thought process she went through in Clarice's mind after she found Lecter's message on the map. The movie needed a vehicle to convey that message to the audience so they used Ardelia Mapp as the voice of her conscience.
