Opinions please!

Here is my 'finished' Tardis Doily.
I need opinions!!! Does it look alright as it is? Or, honestly now, do you think I should add something in between the Daleks? Oh, I am going to add 'eyes' to the Daleks too, and perhaps their 'arms', they will be facing forward... looking at you.
But, between? What do you think? too much empty space or ok?
I wet it and laid it out this morning to get a better look.
In case you are wondering..
The Center is the Seal of Rassilon
Then 7 Daleks
Then 9 Tardis
Inbetween the Tardis (Tardi?)  is my representation of the swirly moons from the Van Gogh painting The Starry Night.  My Favorite episode of Doctor Who was the one where he visited Van Gogh.

Lace Day 2015 and Doctor Who

I have been working furiously on the Tardis doily. I have it about half finished. All the Tardi are finished.. now working on creating my own doily design for the center.
So many ends to hide... ugh...

 I just found out there is a contest at the Lace Day in Lafayette Indiana..(April 11!)
The theme is 'eggs'...
I have an idea which I think is cool.. We'll see if I can get it done, but I MUST finish the Tardis doily first. I must say, I love the idea I have for the Lace day.. hope I can get it done.
Can't tell you what it is.. it is a secret!!

Dia De Los Muertos Mask!

Here is the gift  I made for my swap partner, vavix over in the Ravelry group tinyowlknits.
I love this thing so much.. I have to make myself one!
It was difficult to get started, but after making one...I don't think it will be that difficult now.

                                    Here it is on her. Isn't she adorable!!
She graciously put on the makeup and added the flowers.  I love it!
Here it is on its own..

She liked orange and yellow and aqua as colors. It is hard to see the little aqua beads I put around the edge..
After tatting it, I stiffened it with mod podge and put it on a styrofoam head form to make the shape. I also added a ribbon (which isn't in the  photo) to tie it on with. 

Mine, when I make it, will have a bat where the big orange flower is.
