So, for this one, I left lots of space, getting around twinges of horror vacui by placement and just plain being tired of fanatical cramming. And presto, it was more fun to do - for one thing, I think I just like detached chain stitch better. Also, as its other name of lazy daisy stitch indicates, it is great for flowers and I had just seen lots of lovely flowers on last weekend's hikes.
This is the clearest embroidery-inspirer; I knew what stitches were coming up (since I'm so behind!) and this little flower was perfect.

Just love the purple flowers!
That's lovely. I enjoy your tendency to space-filling, but my personal preference is for sparser compositions.
And flowers always go well.
Very Lovely!
I believe I see a legendary green unicorn caterpillar inching among the flowers.
Wish I saw flowers that nice on my hikes.
