Continue the Ladder Stitch until you have a total of 10 sets of beads; a set being a line of beads consisting of a seed bed, a bugle bead and a seed bead. You should have a flat, regular piece of beadwork. If the thread tension is loose, use this time to snug it up a bit so that you don't have any gaps between the bugle beads.
