Symbols of Hospitality

What says hospitality to you?
The correct answer, of course, is coffee.
JK!

As we begin the holidays here celebrating us - the Hostesses, I'm hunting for traditional symbols of hospitality. What do you recognize most as cozy, open door, a true sign of welcome?

• wreath
• pineapple
• Quilt!!!
• rocking chair
• pie
• watermelon
• coasters
• gift tags
• canning jars
• cupcakes
• apron

Do you have a favorite theme or symbol I have missed? Is there a sign you associate with a time you felt most welcome? Have you made a welcome quilt?

For this Totally Tech Tuesday, here is a Treasury of Hospitality in Quilts:

Always fun to see how quilts are used in artistic ways, and how many other arts reference quilting.

Bonus- here is another Treasury, More Hospitality Quilts,
just for quilt patterns with welcome themes:
