Its the kind of pickleball design that works as a proper crest rather than just a slogan. Two paddles crossed at the centre, a red pickleball in the middle with the cutout details stitched in black, ribbon banners above and below, and PICKLEBALL in standalone dark green block letters at the very bottom. Its a full illustrated badge and its got a lotta fill area, which is why stitch counts run from 14,000 at 3 inches up to just over 40,947 at seven inches.
3 colours, two thread changes. Dark green for the paddles and lower text, red for the banners and ball, black for the detail work. Id pop cutaway behind it on anything stretchy and a medium-weight tearaway on canvas tote or cotton sweatshirt. A customer ordered this on a navy zip jacket last spring and said the green and red popped against the dark fabric better than shed expected. That combo works well, charcoal and black too, pretty much anything thats not already a bright colour.
Go with 5 or 6 inches for most bag or jacket applications. Check your hoop clearance before you go up to 7 inches because it fills a lot of real estate. At 3 inches the badge reads clearly but the banner lettering is tight, so pick your smallest needle size for that run. Hoop it on canvas or a woven poly-cotton blend and itll sit flat without any puckering. Drop me a message if you need a size thats not listed and Ill see what I can do.

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.
