Mama's concern for Dee's happiness and sentiments turn negative. She feels dejected when Dee demands the quilts and calls her manipulative and clever.
Explanation:
'Everyday Use' by Alice Walker explores the theme of heritage, tradition, and ownership. The quilts are used as a symbol to represent these key ideas. Mama considers the quilts as a representative of her family's heritage and wishes to use these quilts and pass on this legacy to Maggie as she believes that she would be able to add to the legacy of the family. While Dee wants to preserve them as she wanted to show off her 'heritage' and preserve them instead of letting them wear out by using.
However, the moment she demands the quilts from her mother, Mama's feeling towards her immediately changes as she finds it a threat to the family's heritage. Her privilege for Dee's feelings and happiness vanishes and she begins to consider her manipulative and becomes more inclined towards Maggie as she feels that Maggie is the one who can take care of her family's heritage and add to the legacy.
