I chose this item because, growing up, I would watch my mother and aunt sew their Christmas curtains and repair clothing—from a ripped hem to a loose button. Each time my mother turned on her machine, I was there, ready to thread it for her. The sewing machine became more than just a tool; it was a part of family rituals, symbolizing resourcefulness, creativity, and the strong bonds of shared traditions. This item connects deeply to my memories of family gatherings and the hands-on skills passed down through generations.
