Saturday PhotoHunt - Lazy.


Time for the PhotoHunt again, and this week the theme is
LAZY
Well, I've been lazy, as I'm only now posting my entry!

This is a piece of embroidery on a towel.
The stitch used is Lazy Daisy!

Here's a close-up of one of the flowers.
Six Lazy Daisy petals.

For a load more LAZY photos, visit our host TNChick.

Happy Hunting!

Interesting! Any idea why the Lazy Daisy is so-called?

Oh what a great take for this week! I was trying to think of a stitch or something called "lazy" but I couldn't remember it-- thanks to your post, it all came flooding back! I remember making those on pillowcases as a little girl. Sweet!

I did Photo Hunters today, too! If you have time, pay me a visit and leave your link. :)

My grandmother used to do a lot of embroidering before she lost her sight completely. What a lovely little big of "lazy"!

Oh, I love your take on the "lazy" theme. I remember making a lot of those lazy daisy stitches when I learned embroidery many years ago!
