Ragged and torn. Faded and gray. The fabric of America emerged.

30,000 Stitches is a story of hope, unity, and healing in the face of tragedy. It is the story of the National 9/11 Flag. A flag that hung across from Ground Zero in the days following 9/11 and became tattered and torn in the debris. A flag that Americans from all walks of life—military veterans, first responders, educators, students, community-service heroes, and family members of 9/11 victims—came together to repair. The flag traveled over 120,000 miles across all fifty states, bringing together thousands of people who helped America heal and rebuild . . .hand by hand, thread by thread, one stitch at a time.
