Time to Return to Egypt

I started stitching one of Tapestry Fair's Egyptian animal pieces in 2013. Doesn't you think it is time I finished Catra?  In case you are interested, here are the three Egyptian animals in the series--Bastet the Cat Goddess and Cleo's Cat (that's my canvas) and Pharaoh Hound for dog lovers.

Basat has a stitch guide from Ruth Schmuff as this canvas was one of Ruth's mystery classes.

Tony Minieri has done a guide for Basat as well.

Ruth's also done a stitch guide for Pharaoh Dog.

Now, should I finish the lotus fans or start work on the cat's body...?

Decisions, decisions!
