If anyone was wondering who Miss Muffet actually was, Mr Google tells us that she was the daughter of Dr Thomas Muffet, a famous 16th-century scientist who studied insects. Apparently Daddy’s work wasn’t such a great hit with his daughter!

Kaffe Fassett’s Colour at Mottisfont
On Thursday 11th January a group of EG members went to see the Kaffe Fassett exhibition at Mottisfont Abbey. Kaffe Fassett is reported to be delighted with the way his work was exhibited at Mottisfont. Unlike most exhibition galleries, the normal white walls were replaced with colours that either complemented or toned with the work on display. EG member Daphne Dedman wrote: ‘Seven of us went, and everyone thought it was worth the trip. The first room was painted blue, and had alot of blue and white items. As we progressed round the rooms, the walls were painted in complementary colours and the items got brighter’. Scroll down through the images below for a taste of the exhibition (photos by Daphne).
