Playing with clamshells in EQ6

Broken Circles 44"x44" Quilt

I was wondering what would happen if I just used the one block to design the whole quilt
Using the clamshell block was exciting all of a sudden. I rotated every second block and found some sort of a flower design starting but in the back of my head the clamshells looked like ships floating on the ocean.
The ships just weren't doing it for me tonight , so flower petals started to take over my mind and then I saw the circles. The circles seemed to be broken at every intersection , hence the name.
I also decided that they would be exciting in the border, but I didn't want the square border , I wanted something fancier. I took the clamshell back into easy draw and turned it on point for the corner block , erased a couple of lines and bingo! It was exactly what I imagined.
The colour combination could be anything you like. I am not a fan of green at all, but it just wanted to be present in this quilt, so it got it's own way. Oh well.
