Step 11

Step 11:To your black thread add an 11/o green seed and a 4mm green pearl and pass your thread thru the next small bugle in the base (bead 24 - step 9).

No beads are added to your red thread, just pass it thru the last 4mm green pearl on your black thread (bead 29).

Step 12

Step 12:To your red thread add an 11/o green seed and a 4mm green pearl and pass the thread thru the next small silver bugle in the base (bead 18 - step 7)

No beads are added to the black thread, just pass it thru the last 4mm green pearl on your red thread (bead 31).

Step 13

Step 13:You will now add the 3mm green pearls (under your 4mm green pearls) to stabilize the bottom of the frame)

Using just your red thread, add a 3mm green pearl and pass thru the small silver tube next to it. Continue to add a 3mm pearl and pass thru the next small bugle till you have a 3mm pearl in each corner. Your red thread will exit the small bugle (bead 18) and then pass thru the 4mm green pearl above (bead 25 - step 10).

Step 14

Step 14:To your black thread add an 11/o green seed and cross your red thread thru the same bead (bead 36)

Step 15

Step 15:Using just your black thread, pass thru all four 11/o seed beads that form the center bottom (beads 30, 28, 26 & 36). Reinforce the center by going around these four seed beads again.

With additional thread if necessary:
Reinforce around all small and large bugles as many times as the beads allow to stabilize the structure.

Tie off your ends and weave them into your work.
