🧵 Title:

To the Unnamed Hands

✨ Text:

This book is stitched in gratitude to the hands we cannot name—
the grandmothers, garment workers, ritual makers, protest stitchers,
who embroidered care into cloth, resistance into thread,
and memory into the seams of the world.

We welcome embroidery into the Museum of Small Change—
a place where quiet gestures ripple outward,
where thread becomes testimony,
and where every stitch is a refusal to forget.

To those who stitched banners in silence,
who patched grief into protest,
who mapped migration in thread—
this book is for you.
