Going batty and making lace

I have some books about the history and science of making tea that would be fun to explore for this blog. I'm just feeling a little too overwhelmed by life to explore those right now. In the mean time, enjoy a picture of my new tea pet, and a lace doily that I'm working on.
The doily is for a lace contest this summer. We are to make a piece of lace depicting the moon. If all goes right, I will be tatting the 8 phases of the moon to go around the edge of the doily. I made the center black with a gray stripe for the Milky Way. I have some silver seed beads to sew onto it for stars. Making the new moon, full moon, and quarter moons are straightforward and easy. I'm still working on methods to make the gibbous and crescent moons.
Attempt #1 is a no. I'll keep working on it. Meanwhile, I hope that my bad doesn't poop on my work. Life is already pooping on me enough.
