Thanks everyone! I'll post a shot of the Appearance panel breakdown of the stitch effect. Basically it is just a Zig Zag Effect applied to multiple strokes.
Here is a shot of the Appearance panel of the stitch effect. Basically it consists of three strokes of varying point sizes. Each stroke has a Zig Zag Effect applied to it. In the Zig Zag Effect, the Size is 1px and the Ridges is 100. Then the top stroke's Vertical Move from the Transform effect is 1px. The bottom stroke's Vertical Move from the Transform effect is -1px. Hope that helps!
One thing, you've got this awesome stitching on the ball, and the wide grey stitch on the inner stroke (very cool), but the background is strange... its like ruled paper texture or something.
*Robot Voice* Does.not.compute.
Stitched through paper is what doesn't work for me.
I wonder what it'd look like if that white bg was more cloth-like? Maybe not that linen trendy business everyone is doing, but something like pique or a fabric that is commonly embroidered?
Just my $.02 nitpicking and its obviously awesome. :)
