It was me! We searched for days for the Australian flag and were finally reminded by the Rangers we could find one in a back office drawer. I thought I looked there but no. We found two in various states of tatters.
One was missing a grommet and was frayed. That one is back in the drawer. The other was shredded at the end. But lo and behold, there was also a Brother sewing machine in the same room with manuals and a little thread.
Just like Betsy Ross, I sewed a flag. But it was by machine, already designed and relatively intact. I am standing by the Betsy Ross reference.
Good on you! Nice to see such patriotism from someone who isn’t even Australian.

I’m in Aus. and found your blog through an old KnitPicks Podcast. I really enjoy reading your adventures As they come into my Feed. I find it quite touching that you are fixing a flag and thought it important enough to look for one. Thanks for sharing your life.
