About this pattern

A white box ambulance seen from the side and heading right. On the side of the box is a red heart on a red heartbeat line with one sharp beat; a wide red stripe runs the length of the vehicle, and a red warning light stands on the roof. The cab has a blue window behind a sloping windscreen, and there are two dark gray wheels with lighter hubs and a gray bumper at each end. No cross, star, lettering or number is drawn. A small piece for a card or a thank-you for a paramedic. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 46 by 28 stitches and uses six thread colors.

46 stitches wide by 28 high: 919 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Winter White 3865, Red 321, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938 and 3 more).
