I embossed the basketball circle and the black BG panel with different embossing folders, and then used the zig zag stitch at a length of 1/10 (1 notch above zero) for the basketball lines. This layout would also work well for a baseball or volleyball, just don't emboss the ball panel and sew the lines different.
