Found an old project file where I was trying to use Clamshells for a border … the real project has long been finished with borders which do not include any clamshells but the virtual project was still there just in case I wanted it again.
Other than the first design the remaining designs show slight variations on a theme.
I certainly don’t have any project in mind which might need one of these borders, and only one is ready to use anyway … the others need a fair bit of work on the corners!
The skinny versions could be used without much further work … the others … well, they were an interesting and challenging exercise in using Electric Quilt!

Mmm, different. I like the first one, the colours as well. Would they be all applique?

Marie,
I like the first one too … the others are there mainly to show the wider borders, which just means more rows of clamshells. The shells can be pieced around those curves, then appliqued, though I think I would applique them all to the background row by row! Larger scale I would piece.

I really like the first one. Would be challenging to applique.

Cindy,
I think Clamshells would be a challenge anyway unless they are a reasonable size … easier to piece if they were bigger.
