Heart Stethoscope Embroidery Design, Nurse Healthcare Gift, Instant Download

Its a stethoscope and a heart at the same time, which is really the whole design. The tubing runs up from the diaphragm, splits into two arcs that form the top lobes of the heart, then the earpiece ends trail out past each other the way they naturally sit. The round diaphragm disc anchors the bottom point. No fill areas, no background, just the cord itself running as one continuous black satin line the whole way around.

Single colour, zero colour changes, 3 trims. Smallest hoop run is only 1,260 stitches on the 1.45-inch size, the largest at 5 inches tops out at 5,342. And honestly thats the bit I appreciate most about this one, the proportions stay clean even tiny. Outline-only builds dont blur the way dense fill designs can at small dimensions.

Ive sold a bunch of these across the last couple years for nurse and doctor gift runs. People drop it on a scrub pocket, a badge reel blank, a small canvas pouch. One customer last winter stitched the 1.5-inch on a set of reels for a whole ward team as a christmas gift. Simple enough to reproduce twenty times in an afternoon, clear enough that everyone gets what it is immediately.

Hoop with a light tearaway on woven cotton scrub fabric since its all outline work and there isnt much stabiliser stress on the base cloth. Switch to a cutaway only if youre stitching on stretch knit. Black on white or pale blue scrub fabric reads cleanest. Skip dark grounds unless you swap to a lighter thread colour, the thin satin cord disappears otherwise.
