This was to end the confusion of Continental flags using parts of British designes. She was shown a rough design of the flag that included a 6 pointed star. She particularly impressed George Washington, George Morris and George Ross by demonstrating how to cut a 5 pointed star in a single snip of the scissors. On June 14, 1777 the Continental Congrress adopted this flag as the National Flag.
