To make my motif, I first used the direct select tool to morph an ellipse. then I used the rotate tool to rotate it, then I used pathfinder to exclude some parts of the shape. This motif was so simple to make, and I enjoyed using the skills I acquired on Illustrator to make interesting shapes.
The process for my repeat pattern was similar to my motif. I started by creating the flower using the rotate tool, and then used option drag to copy it. I used the pattern maker to make the quadrant pattern feel. Overall, I learned a lot about repeat patterns and use of white space while doing my repeat pattern.
