Flower Centre - String 11/4" red beads and 8" of light green beads. Form the red beads into a loop. Twist the feed wire (red beads) around the starting wire, pulling it tightly against the loops. Cut away the starting wire. Cut the wire leaving 2" of bare wire. Make 6 such flower centres.

Petals - Shape of the petals is elongated top and bottom (pointed petal).

Inner Petals - Inner petals has 7 rows. The basic count of the petal is 2" in length . The basic and the other two rows must be done in red chalk. The next four rows are done in white and red speckled chalk beads. Make 3 inner petals.

Outer Petals - Outer petals has 9 rows. The basic count of the petal is 2" in length . The basic and the other two rows must be done in red chalk. The next six rows are done in white and red speckled chalk beads. Make 3 outer petals.

Leaves - The leaf has 5 rows with pointed top and bottom. The basic count of the leaf is 3" in length. Make 6 leaves. Leaves are done in light green beads.

Arranging :

Cut a long pieces of stem wire.
Twist the hangings wires of all the 6 centres together and tape it to the stem wire.
Bind the inner petals to fit evenly around stem and tape binding for 1/2". Bend the tips of the petal down a little shallowly.
Bind the outer petals to fit between the opening of the inner petals. Bend the tips very sharply downwards.
Tape down entire stem.
Insert dark green beads on a long wire and twist down the stem for 5".
Tape 3 leaves at the base of the twisting, spacing evenly around stem. The leaves are bend like inner petals.
Add the remaining 3 just under it and tape out the entire stem. The leaves are bend like outer petal.
