I have been looking on ebay for this chart for two years - and just in time to still get it done for Mom's 50th birthday this October!
Chart found happy dance!
That is a really stunning border--have a wonderful time stitching it. Dawne
Ummm?!?
Do you really want to tell a 50 year old that "Old Age is Golden"? Seems more like "Middle age" to me!
(It is a beautiful border)
It's not even "Middle Age"; it's very "Early Middle Age"!!! grin

OK, OK, maybe I'll save it for a few more years...but we did plant 50 buzzards on the lawn for Dad's last year...at least this is tasteful and she would have lots of years to enjoy it.

The "correct" definition of "middle age", is ten years older than you are. (VBG)
ROTFLMAO - if I could have found 50 buzzards, I'd have done that to DH last winter.

Oh, good. It's not just me. Rainy Season has been upon us with a vengeance this week, and the arthritis is telling me I'm 100 years old. Anyone want to buy a knee, cheap?
No- it's not just you! yesterday's Brownie meeting was conducted by three zombies disguised as leaders.
And NO - I do not want your knee. My left one is achy. (and I need more sleep and WAY less stress)
Cheryl
Not knowing what the verse says, could you rework the title to be "Age is Golden" ???

I'd say let's take all the bad parts and build one total crip to deal with ALL the medical problems, but according to Cheryl's gripe, this crip would have two left knees. Not sure how well that would work.
I can give you a slightly used, slightly bruised right knee. I can also provide two shoulders and an achy neck. Do you think you would be able to use those parts? If so, let me know and I'll be glad to fold them up, stick them in an envelope and mail them USPS. They certainly don't deserve any more special handling than that.

The border is wonderful but the poem lets it down. I found the words on another site.
