Supplies

33 9mm Scalloped Settings/Can be with or without a ring

Set all of your stones. Seven of the stones should be set with the loops on each end bent flat. The remaining stones should be set with the two loops on the end and one loop at the side (center) bent flat. These loops will be used as connect loops.
The first row of seven stones should be stones with three rings. Connect each two stones with a single 4mm jump ring. You will have a total of seven rows of stones reducing each row by one, with the last row containing a single stone.
All but the last stone should have three loops. The last stone will only have two loops.
With the second through sixth rows you will connect the side loop of the first stone to the bottom loop of the first stone on the top row. The other side of the first stone on the second row should be attached to the bottom loop of the second stone on the first row. The second stone on the second row will also be connected to the second stone on the first row with a separte 4mm jump ring. Continue this process until you have all seven rows.
Make six beaded chains with two beads each and two beaded chains with four beads each.
Attach the beaded chains to the two loop stones with a jump ring. You need to strands with 4 beads,1 stone, 2 beads, 1 stone, 2 beads, 1 stone and 2 beads at the end.
Connect each bead and stone chain to each side of the bib with a 4mm jump ring.
Use the 5mm jump rings to attach the clasp to the other end of the chains
