An ultrasound photo is one of the first keepsakes that someone has after finding out they’re pregnant.

The resulting custom pieces are a special keepsake to remember this extraordinary time.

Sherbak was first inspired to stitch these portraits because of her work outside of embroidery.

In addition to being an embroidery artist, Im also an ultrasound technologist, she tells My Modern Met.

I shared it on my Instagram account and people loved it.

I started getting requests for custom orders and thats how that aspect of my embroidery business took off.

Sherbak has produced over 60 ultrasound embroideries since then.

Many are in hoops while others are immortalized as necklaces.

This allows her to create smooth color gradients and capture the exact representation of the picture.

The most challenging part of it for me is the limited color palette, Sherbak reveals.

Custom ultrasound portraits are available for commission via theMoss and Feather Etsy shop.

Embroidery artist Yulia Sherbak immortalizes ultrasound photos by perfectly recreating them with thread.
