Did you know that America’s Star Spangled Banner was made by hand in Baltimore, Maryland? Mary Pickersgill learned the trade from her mother, a Revolutionary War flag maker. By 1813, Pickersgill was a widow running her own business when the commander of Fort McHenry’s militia gave her an extraordinary request— a flag “so large that the British will have no difficulty seeing it from a distance.” So Pickersgill and a team of women worked for weeks, cutting, stitching, and assembling hundreds of yards of fabric.
