Betsy Ross

We know Betsy Ross as a seamstress and flagmaker.

Can you imagine being visited by George Washington, our country’s first president, and being asked to stitch a flag?  And according to family legend, she is the one that convinced Pres. Washington to change the shape of the star from a 6 pointed star to a 5 pointed star.

But we know that stars can be a number of different points, just like with this patriotic quilt by Inspired by Fabric.  Fast and fun pattern but best of all FREE:  http://inspiredbyfabric.blogspot.com/2017/06/summer-of-sewing-patriotic-star-quilt.html .

 

 

So many fun fabrics to choose from:
