I saw this posted on Facebook and it inspired me to paint some new designs on plates with pretty borders.

New border pattern |
I realised when I had made this plate, it wasn't too far away from a design I painted a couple of years ago, a pattern I had named "vintage wallpaper" - which, by completely coincidence, the Queen of modern day ceramics - Emma Bridgewater - a pottery designer I greatly admire - has recently brought out a pattern of the same name!

My original "vintage wallpaper" pattern |
I've yet to name the "arrow" pattern, my friend thinks it's like an optical illusion, but I am stuck - any suggestions to name this pattern are more than welcome, if I think it's a good match and you don't mind me using it, there's a big Cheese or Cake plate in it for you!
