Indianapolis Colts C Letterform Indiana State Embroidery File | 11 Sizes | 26 Formats

The Indianapolis Colts varsity block C in deep navy with the Indiana state silhouette cut out from the counter space so the garment fabric shows through in the exact shape of the state. A satin border traces the full outer C perimeter including all eight chamfered corner cuts where the horizontal and vertical edges meet at a diagonal rather than a square corner. The navy satin fill covers the C body as a continuous frame around the state outline. The Indiana state silhouette inside the counter is an unstitched zone defined by the inner fill termination edge tracking the angular state perimeter — the straight northern edge, the stepped northwestern notch at the Lake Michigan shore, and the angular southern boundary. Eight white dot accents are distributed symmetrically: three across the upper C arm, two on the left vertical back stroke, and three across the lower arm, referencing the horseshoe dot motif across the Colts collection. Eleven sizes from 2 to 7 inches tall.

Eleven sizes from 2 to 7 inches tall. Minimum hoop required is 4x4 inches. Two thread colors: navy blue and white.

Embroidery Formats Included

26 formats included, compatible with virtually every home and commercial embroidery machine currently in use.

Recommended Uses

Center or left-chest on jerseys, hoodies, and zip-up jackets where the bold single-letter typographic treatment reads as a statement piece. At 4 to 4.5 inches on a cap front panel the state cutout is clearly legible and distinguishes this design from a standard block C. Sleeve patches, bag embroidery, and hat side panels at 2 to 2.5 inches. Strong regional identity appeal for Indiana-based buyers and alumni merchandise — the best choice in the Colts collection when geographic state pride is the design direction.

Stitching Tips

Use a firm cutaway stabilizer on all garment types to prevent the large navy fill body from distorting inward toward the state cutout opening during stitching. Apply water-soluble topping at 2 and 2.5 inches to keep dot accents and chamfer corner geometry clean on textured surfaces. Reduce machine speed when stitching the state outline boundary and chamfered corners at all sizes to maintain edge precision on the angular termination points.
