Can you fix a warped needlepoint project on a plastic canvas without taking out the stitches?

Yes, depending on the reason it is warped. If the thread has shrunk, then you need to cut the thread, and repair at least three stitches on both sides of the cut.
However, if the plastic is twisted, you can correct that by using a steam iron, on a low heat setting. Cover the project with a wet cloth, such as a sheet or t-shirt, and place the steaming iron in it lightly. Then put the project on a dry surface, and cover with a weight until dry. I turn a full coffee can upside down to flatten them.

How can you make football helmets out of plastic canvas needlepoint without getting into trouble?
I assume by trouble, you mean with licensing restrictions and rules for specific football teams, perhaps college or NFL teams? I also assume you want to make the helmets and sell them. A way to get around licensing regulations is to make the helmets general and not include the name of the team on the helmet. I do not know if the actual logo would have to be changed a little, too, but I would assume it would have to be. Otherwise, if you wish to make exact replicas of the team logos and names and sell them, you would need to contact the schools or NFL to obtain a license to make them. I got the NFL application once and it was pretty detailed about 10 years ago when I got it, but it is not impossible to meet the requirements. As I remember it, though, it was pretty costly. There also might be a certain number you can make and sell without a license, but I doubt it. I don't think there's a market for premade plastic canvas needlepoint replicas of NFL and/or college football helmets. You could sell them as craft kits, but not premade. How about doing these of the local high school teams? Licensing a high school team's logo wouldn't be expensive--at most a couple dollars payable to the athletic fund per helmet--and I think they'd be popular.

What paint can you use on a plastic sign?
If you are painting lettering directly to the plastic, there are single part epoxies that are available, some suitable for outdoor use, that would adhere to plastic without having to use a primer. If you are going to paint the background a solid color, you can use a special primer, formulated to adhere to plastic, then paint it with an acrylic paint which can then be coated with the same type of acrylic paint for any lettering and design.

How long until you can shower with stitches?
Initially it is not a good idea to get stitches wet in the bath or shower. You get stitches when the skin has be cut and during the initial stages of healing, it can disturb some of the fragile structures that are trying to form to aid in the healing. Washing or rinsing the site where the stitches are can remove antibiotics that have been applied to the site to protect it. Although the shower or bath water may be pretty sanitary, it still can introduce some pathogens - bath water more than showers. More importantly though, if antibiotics have been washed away, the environment around you is loaded with pathogens that now have an easier time getting a start at infecting the site of the stitches. Last, but not least, getting the stitches wet means you are also drying out the skin around them. The skin around the stitches is already damaged and removing the natural protections like the natural oils produced by the skin. I suppose it should go without saying that if the stitches are the kind that are designed to dissolve over time then you REALLY don't want them to get wet and dissolve ahead of schedule.
