Start by sewing up through a PieDuo from the tip to the rounded edge and through a middle hole of a QuadBow. Pick up an 11/0 and a 15/0 and thread through the middle of a BowTrio. Add another 15/0 and a wire guard, sew back through the 15/0, the BowTrio and the initial 15/0. Pick up another 11/0 and sew down the other middle hole of the QuadBow and down to the bottom of the PieDuo.
Add on a 15/0 surrounded on either side by two 11/0s and thread back up through the PieDuo. Watch the Tokyo earrings tutorial to see step-by-step directions to decorate the top of the earring.
Tie off the thread ends and burn flush with a burner and add an earwire.
