Select the center of rotation of the object as the bottom of the circle.
- Apply Apply To Duplicate tab, we get a new circle with the bottom center coincide with the original circle (figure 2, 3).
- Click on Apply To Duplicate tab again 4 more times, we get 6 circles with the same center at the bottom (Figure 4).

- Similarly, the two steps above have 6 ellipses which are 6 intersections of 6 circles (Figure 7).

Step 3
- Select two adjacent ellipses.
- Select Object - Shaping - Intersect , we get the intersection of the two ellipses to be a smaller ellipse (Figure 8).
- Similar to the above two steps we have 6 small ellipses which are 6 intersections of 6 large ellipses (Figure 9).

Step 4
- Draw two circles so that the first image has a diameter larger than the diameter of 6 circles with the same center at the bottom, the second image has a diameter larger than the first one (Figure 10).
- Click on the two circles.
- Select Object - Combine (you can press the shortcut Ctrl + L).
- Select Object - Align and Distribute :
- Finally, you can color arbitrarily to get the result as shown in Figure 11.
