Best Answer

It was actually said that no one had asked Betsy Ross to sew the American flag. She was bored one day and had remembered that a couple years back, she had learned how to sew and thought it was pretty fun. She then picked up all of the materials that she needed and was one her way to sewing a beautiful site. That is how she had actually decided to sew the American flag.

Keep in mind that there is no actual evidence that anyone by that name actually existed. The stories are anecdotal.

Betsy Ross didn't sew the flag. This is a fable that began with her grandson. Our first flag was commissioned by the navy in 1776 and was based on the British Union flag. Francis Hopkins designed the first flag who was given credit by Congress for having done so.

A grandson of Mrs. Ross claimed that in 1870, but no historical record exists to prove the claim.

She was supposedly asked by George Washington himself, but most historians discount the entire Betsy Ross sorry alltogether.

No one asked her to make the flag. The story of her making the flag begins after her death and it started with her grandchildren.
