I really like how minimal this one turned out. The heartbeat line sweeps in from the left, peaks, and curves down into a small heart shape, and then the stethoscope sits just below it, completing the whole story in one compact image. Theres nothing extra going on visually, no text crowding it, no decorative borders, just those two elements and they say everything they need to say. Really clean for a medical design.
No dimension specs were attached to this one, but the line work here is thin so it does best on stable woven fabrics where the needle can track cleanly. Scrub fabric, cotton twill, canvas, denim all work well. Use tearaway stabiliser for most applications. For knit scrub tops, go with a light cutaway so the design doesnt distort when the fabric stretches through the day. Hoop snug, the heartbeat line is the most detail-sensitive part.
This one gets ordered a lot for personalised scrub pocket patches and nurse gift bags. A customer once told me she ran it in white thread on a deep teal tote for a nurse graduation and it got more compliments than the card. I can believe that honestly. You can also stitch it as a single-color design if you want something really crisp and simple.
Drop me a chat note if you cant open one of the formats and Ill sort it out fast.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
