Pulled together a sports mashup that actually works as a stitched piece. Its a circle cut right down the middle, left side is the classic soccer ball with those black pentagon panel outlines sitting on white, right side is a solid rust-orange fill with the two curved baseball seam lines running over it. And thats it. No fuss, just two sports in one clean circle.
The vertical split is sharp, the black satin border holds the whole thing together. Three colours total which keeps the bobbin changes low. White goes in first as the base on the soccer side, then rust-orange fills the baseball half, then black comes in last for all the outlines and seam detail. Ive kept the stitch density at a moderate level so its not stiff on lighter garments.
Best on white or grey fabric where the white soccer panels disappear into the background and the orange half just pops. Black fabric works too but youll want to swap the white base thread for a lighter grey so the pentagon divisions still show up. A customer last spring asked for the 4-inch hoop for a grey sweatshirt for a dual-sport kid and it looked really clean. Stabilise with medium cutaway on knits, tear-away on woven cotton or canvas.
Runs from 4,613 stitches at starting petite up to about 26k on the full 5.5-inch hoop. Underlay keeps the satin border crisp so dont skip it. Use a topping on any pile fabric like fleece or terry. Hoop tight, run it slow the first time, check the split is sitting straight before you let it go full speed.
And because its two sports in one design, the use cases are honestly wider than a single-sport piece. Holler if you need the file re-sent or if the split is shifting on your machine, I sort these 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.
