DOES AN AMERICANA TABLE HAVE TO BE RED WHITE AND BLUE?

I set a patriotic table with yellow, white, and blue. Are you wondering how it can be a patriotic tablescape.
I used several pewter accessories on the tab le, because, I associate pewter with Americana.
Under the salad plates, I used my Churchill American Heritage, Millennium Collection plates. I bought mine at an estate sale, but somebody said they were originally a grocery store giveaway. The borders of these plates depict symbols of America.
Our plates for the main course were Wedgwood, The Federal City. Each of these black and white plates features a scene from Washington, DC.
Lady Liberty, with her green patina, was my centerpiece. I added some Crepe Myrtle stems to a glass to give the suggestion of a Cherry Blossom tree. On the other side of the glass of stems is a tiny American flag, which of course, is red, white, and blue - the only red on the table.
