Logo was taken from
https://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/emacs/emacs/etc/images/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/emacs.svg?view=log
Something similar but in PNG can be found at:

For embroidery, DST files that contain the embroidery machine 
instructions can be created with free and open source software from SVG 
files.

Embroidery can be done a single shirt at a time, allowing for 
customization.  Some images are difficult to embroider, in particular 
images with many colors and gradients. Direct to garment printing can be 
used in this case.  It may be helpful to have this option on the FSF and 
affiliated stores.  Probably a similar permission would be needed for 
this use case as for embroidery.
