It was 200 years ago this summer that a Baltimore flag-maker stitched the flag that inspired America's national anthem. Now, hundreds of people are helping to recreate the star-spangled banner.
The project began July 4 in Baltimore, and it is expected to take volunteers six weeks to hand-sew the estimated 150,000 stitches in the famous flag. When finished, it will be about a quarter of the size of a basketball court.
The public gets a chance to help with the sewing Saturday and again next week. Hundreds have signed up to participate. More
Flag needs to be turned upside down as what's left of this country is in sincere distress.
