"I had recently visited the Shelburne Museum in Vermont and was very interested in its history, so I decided to hook it as a wonderful memory of my time there. Using my photographs and information from the museum, the biggest challenge was hooking the barn to make it look round. I hooked the values of the red barn horizontally, to follow the contour of the barn. The lettering required a large border to hold the historical information I wanted to hook in it."
