ELORA – St. John’s Anglican Church in Elora started making these banners with knitted and crocheted poppies a few years ago and now have fashioned several banners that hang throughout the village for Remembrance Day.

The second banner at the church goes up. Each of the banners is rolled in sheets and carefully labelled to ease installation.

Last year the group added some black poppies to commemorate the death of Queen Elizabeth.
