Using the carbon paper, trace the patterns in two opposing angles.
Embroider in satin and stem stitches with two strands of the floss. Sew on the beads. Fold the big side, then the small one into the middle. Stitch the sides. Turn over. Form a ruffle by stitching all around, 1" (2.5cm) from the edges.
