Cut off nicely the rest of the balloon. We are going to use the rest of the balloon later to make the letter Щ. Tie off the ends (Pic 15). At this moment our sculpture looks like Russian letter Б.

Use scissors to cut the sixth bubble (Pic 16). Our sculpture looks very much as English letter E!

Fix all bubbles in proper positions (Pic 17).

Congratulations, we have made Russian letter Ш (Pic 18). If you flip the sculpture over then it will looks like letter m!

Let's use the scrap of pink balloon to make letter Щ (Pic 19).

We need to attach about three inch long bubble to either third or the tenth bubble of our sculpture (Pic 20).

Twist the first about one inch bubble. Twist the second soft about one inch bubble (Pic 21).

Lock both ends of the second bubble in one lock twist (Pic 22).

Twist the third about one inch bubble. Twist the fourth soft about one inch bubble (Pic 23).

Lock both ends of the fourth bubble in one lock twist (Pic 24).

Cut off the rest of the balloon. Congratulations, we have made the Russian letter Щ (Pic 25). As always we can use sewing thread to fix bubbles in proper positions and to attach it to other letters to make words. Have fun and happy twisting :)
