As she explained the craft of batik, Mrs Law also gave members a fasci­ nating insight into the education process in her home country, where batik is a com­ pulsory subject for all schoolgirls and con­ sidered a vital qualifi­ cation for a girl’s eligi­ bility and success in life. The Laws demonstrated how batik, a South-East Asian art form where hot wax is used to create designs, is cre­ ated on cotton and silk.


Later in the evening, members were able to admire the art creat­ ed by one of their own members, when Mrs Vickie Blackie displayed the minia­ ture pedlar doll which won Best in Show at the previous Satur­ day’s Clitheroe WH show.
