Heres the basketball hoop splash and its full of energy. Classic orange basketball mid-swish, going clean through the red rim with the white net hanging down. The ball has those proper directional shading lines stitched in, going around the curve so you actually feel the round 3D weight of it. Black panel seams crossed across the front. Net is loose, dangling, theres no way you wouldnt know the ball just dropped through.
Behind the ball I burst out a rainbow paint splatter. Purple top-left, magenta and pink across the right, mustard yellow under the rim, teal and navy on the bottom-left. Tiny dot droplets fly out in every direction kinda like a spray-paint can just exploded behind the hoop. The whole splat reads loud, almost like a sticker graphic crossed with a graffiti wall.
And honestly this is one of those designs that just delivers for sport apparel. So I get messages from basketball mums every single week asking for shirts that arent boring, that have real colour and real movement. But the trick is keeping the ball read clean while the splat goes wild. So I locked the ball and rim with thick black outlines and let the splat do the chaos work in the background.
Run this on a black tee or dark navy fleece for the loudest read because the rainbow splat colours need a dark background to stay vivid. Last march one buyer took all nine sizes for a youth-league season tee run and the team showed up on photo day matching across fourteen colours. Skip pale fabric, the splat washes out and the rim disappears. Skip patterned cloth aswell.
Densest spots are the basketball orange fill and the splat centre, density runs about 64k stitches at the biggest hoop with kinda just a lot going on. Run a no-show mesh underneath, hoop tight, and slow ya machine down for the directional satin around the rim. industry software kept it clean. Send a fast holler when a colour stop runs scrambled when you stitch a sample, ill resequence the file fast.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
