Washington Standard Project: Weaving & Dyeing the Silk Replica Flag

The Museum of the American Revolution's Washington Standard Project set out to recreate General George Washington’s headquarters flag, which is part of the Museum’s collection and is said to have marked his presence during the Revolutionary War.
Take a look behind-the-scenes at how the silk was woven by textile artist and weaver Bettes Silver-Schack in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania before it was sent off to Rowland Ricketts, an artist and indigo farmer and dyer in Bloomington, Indiana, for dyeing.
