In Brave (2012), the family tapestry illustrates the changes in the relationship between Merida and her mother.
In the family tapestry, which is woven by Elinor in the beginning of the movie, the image of Merida has braided hair just like her mother's. In the end her and Merida are weaving a new tapestry together, where they wear their hair down, which shows Elinor’s acceptance of her daughter's personality.
