A Legacy of Stitches: Retreat time!

Welcome.........

I hope the stories and photos that I share will inspire and encourage your creativity and provide a pleasant little memory, too! Some days I'll write about quilting, some days about friends, places I've visited, projects, patterns, and more. I've spent more than 40 years stitching and creating and am enjoying this blogging journey that allows me to share my story with all of you!

If you have questions or comments on anything you see or read on my blog, please leave a comment or e-mail me at stitchinglegacy@gmail.com.

The more you give..........

I didn't write this poem. It was posted on the bulletin board at the company I worked at many years ago. I never knew who wrote the poem because it just said "author unknown". I just recently learned that the poem is by Helen Steiner Rice. I love her poems and greeting card verses. I should have known it was written by her. I've added the correct title and her name. There is a great deal of truth in the poem. I just like what it says........
Give Lavishly! Live Abundantly!

The more you give, the more you get.
The more you laugh, the less you fret.
The more you do unselfishly,
the more you live abundantly.
The more of everything you share,
the more you'll always have to spare.
The more you love, the more you'll find
that life is good and friends are kind.
For only what we give away,
enriches us from day to day.
