I wanted to share this picture with all of you that I took this past weekend. This is my friend Beatrice's Mom, Adriana.
Adriana is turning 96 this upcoming week and she's an amazing lady! When I grow up I want to be just like her! She is a lovely, graceful lady. Not only has she aged beautifully, but she can still stitch, and stitch on evenweave! This is her latest finish that she wrapped up barely a week ago.
Is she not an amazing lady? See why I want to grow up to be just like her?

Wow! Yes. My grandmother's only 90 and she looks decrepit next to Adriana! It must be all that cross stitch and clean livin'.
Oh my goodness! That is surely an inspirational lady! Amazing stitching...she has awesome eyesight!
I want to be like her when I grow up too :)
What a lovely photo of my Mother, thank you for sharing.
We would all like to grow up to be just like her and lucky me I have her Genes!
It was so much fun having you and Christin here for the weekend.
Wow! How awesome. Still stitching at 96. I hope I reach 96. What a great piece she just finished.
I love the start you made on the seasonal mandala's.

Isn't that wonderful? I now have hope that I will be able to stitch all of my stash before I die!
A beautiful picture of an amazing lady! Her stitching is gorgeous. What a lovely thing for Beatrice to be able to share with her mom - they are both so very lucky!
Thank you for sharing such a loving tribute to a fellow stitcher. It just proves how important it is to keep on doing the things you love...
Yes, she is amazing. So is her daughter.
I don't think there is one of us that wouldn't want to be just like her at 96! What an amazing project that she has stitched too, it is stunning!
Wow! Adriana looks 30 years younger than her age and to be stitching at 96. I want to be like her too! :)
That is truly amazing, what an inspiration.
What an amazing lady she is. And her cross stitching is just gorgeous.
Goodness, what an inspiration! And yes, I can very well see why you want to be like her when you grow up :-) I think quite many of us would want that...
Stitching at 96? I do want to be just like her. Adriana is beautiful and what a lovely sampler she finished. What's the designs name of pattern? Happy birthday Adriana!! I even love the stitched piece on her lap - WOW. She is so very AMAZING. Lovely post Dani.

Stunning stitching. I'm not sure I could stitch that and I'm not even 60 yet.
Oh! This is inspirational Dani. She does not look her age at all, good for her! And such stitching!

She IS an inspiration. Here's hoping that if I whip myself into shape and stitch A LOT that I can be even a little like Adriana when I'm her age.
