calzephyrA day late, but better late than never! I was downtown on Friday and snapped a pic of various handmade poppies that adorn the Cathedral Church of the Redeemer in downtown Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
The knit and crochet poppies--some with buttons for centres and in a hue of reds--were created in 2018 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of armistice. 7000+ poppies make up the display and were contributed by parishoners and people worldwide. Here's a more in-depth story about the poppies.
