Just a few years before sewing the first American flag, Betsy Ross ran away across the river to get married in a bar against the wishes of her entire family. She sat near George Washington in church and built a friendship with him that lead to her legacy-filled role as the first seamstress of the American flag.After sewing the flag, she went on to operate a successful business for decades. I wonder what advice she'd have for us sewing business owners today? Would it be the importance of choosing a good church pew?I'm no Betsy, but I know what I wish I did. In this episode, I highlight five things I wish I had done when I first went into business, as well as some important things to note in doing business in a craft-based industry.
