So this is the autumn football cluster and its kinda the whole vibe of october in one design. A big tan football on the left with the white lace stitching in satin columns, a cream latte cup right of it with a fat whipped cream swirl on top, 2 orange pumpkins sitting in the foreground, and golden maple leaves fanning out behind the whole grouping. Small star bursts and orange dots scattered around the outside like confetti. Thirteen colours means 12 thread swaps which is a lotta stops but every element earns its colour.
Wilcom laid the density down realy well here. The football body uses directional satin fill angled to suggest the leather grain, the cup section has a layered tan-to-sand gradient through the colour changes, and the maple leaves use a tatami fill that gives em a flat pressed-flower look. Big 7.5-inch runs to around 47k stitches which is the densest this range gets, so prep your stabiliser accordingly.
I get messages from sports mums every autumn about this one. A customer last september ordered 20 matching navy totes for her sons football team end-of-season celebration and said the batch ran clean on every single one. Drop a cutaway underneath for anything bigger than 5 inches and you wont have puckering issues around the dense football section.
Tearaway works fine for the smaller sizes on stable woven cotton. Im gonna say keep the speed a bit lower on the cup swirl, theres alot of short stitches in the cream detail and rushing it can cause thread breaks at the needle.
Works best on navy, charcoal, black or white cotton. The warm tans and oranges look brilliant against dark fabric. I personally like it on a slate grey jersey hoodie, the pumpkin orange just pops. Avoid busy plaids here because you lose the leaf detail. Ping me if the file throws any colour-sequence errors in your software and Ill send a reordered version.

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.
