Stitched with Love

Describe a family tradition that revolves around a specific object or item.

Families often sites of rich material culture, with objects like grandpa’s favorite chair or the heirloom quilt stitched by your great-grandmother carrying multitudes of stories. Write about such an object in your family and the rituals, stories, and sentiments tied to it. This prompt encourages expansive thinking about material culture and how inanimate objects can be imbued with family lore and emotions.
