DIY Football Coasters & Trivet Supplies:
Print and cut out the two trivet templates and tape them together to form a large football.
Trace the template on the back of one of the placemats and cut out the shape.
Line up the template over the back of each football and use a paper piercer or needle mark the ends of the football's laces.
Mark those holes with a Sharpie so you can easily find them while stitching.
To add the laces, begin with the long stitch down the center.
Then go back and add the short stitches over the long stitch.
Follow the Sharpie spots you marked on the back of the coasters.
Repeat with the trivet.

You can even stitch the name of the team on the trivet to further personalize it.
