About this pattern

A bedside heart monitor seen from the front: a gray case with rounded corners and a dark brown outline, round a dark green screen. A light green heartbeat line runs right across the screen from edge to edge and beats twice: each beat is a tall thin spike, a short dip below the line and a low round hump, and the two beats match stitch for stitch. A red heart sits in the top left corner of the screen, and three plain dark gray buttons sit in a row under it. There are no numbers and no lettering. A small piece for a card for a nurse or a heart patient, or for a small frame.

47 stitches wide by 30 high: 1,398 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Very Dark Blue Green 500, Light Steel Gray 318, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938 and 3 more).
