I'm assuming you know how to create a blend in Illustrator....

• Create the blend vertically.

• Draw a semi-cricle path

• Select the blend and the semi-circle and choose Object > Blend > Replace Spine

• At this point it'll look wrong. So choose Object > Blend > Blend Options

• Change the orientation to "Align to Path" rather than to "Align to Page" (The right option should be depressed, see below)

• adjust the "Specified Steps" as necessary.

The path used for the spine can be any path. The procedure is essentially the same for any blend which does not follow a straight path....
