Memorial Day patriotic designs consist of reds and blues, about remembering our fallen heroes, and those who have made sacrifices for us. Using these designs as memorials to someone close to you is a great way to celebrate this holiday.

2. Fourth of July

The Fourth of July is all about the American flag, stars and stripes, and celebrating our freedom. These patriotic designs can be more intricate and include lots of different elements, such as eagles and fireworks. 

3. Labor Day

Labor Day patriotic designs should be for the hard workers around us, the ones who put in the labor, and should be celebrated for it. These designs include thanks to the laborers, flags, and things that represent the blue-collared folks. 

Bonus:

Some more graphic designs, are cuter and would work for most apparel, and great to add to existing patriotic designs.
