The aptly named American Spirit collection from F. Schumacher's Waverly subsidiary offers a variety of cotton red-and-white or blue-and-white checkered prints, plaids in red and in indigo, and denim herringbone striped fabrics. To complete the stars and stripes theme, Clarence House's richly textured Velours Celeste print features a spray of stars stamped in the softest ivory, burgundy and navy velour.

The Forefathers cotton print from Brunschwig & Fils takes a page from American history by depicting each one of the founders of the nation, and a custom rug (Infinite Star) designed by the master of American iconography, Raymond Loewy, is patriotism redux—simple and stylized.
