I recently learned that the Star-Spangled Banner flag (as in, the flag flown over Fort McHenry that inspired the Francis Scott Key poem) has fifteen stripes instead of thirteen, because the tradition at the time was to increase the number of stripes along with the number of stars as more states joined the union.

I assume this tradition ended because of cowardice.

I’ve prepared several options to revive the tradition:

The most direct approach. Looks vaguely pink from a distance.

I like how this one emphasizes how much more America there is now than there used to be.

I think plaid fits nicely, too. As a bonus, a lot of existing tablecloths could be converted to this design with just the addition of the canton.

Honestly, I just spent too much time making this one not to post it.
