Finally, we have sequins in Ruthin Craft Centre. Along with Fair Isle knitting, crinoline ladies, patchwork, Portmeirion and topiary, women’s magazines, handkerchiefs and Harry Styles. Darren Ball’s work gives us all this and more, as he draws inspiration from his collection of ephemera, to make work celebrating sewing and popular culture of the first half of the twentieth century.
