A woman has knitted and crocheted a collection of poppies to remember those who have fallen during conflict.

Farzana Chaudry, of Parkgate Road, in Watford, created the display in her window to show her respect on Armistice Day.

After being inspired by a display at the Chelsea Flower Show Ms Chaudry took it upon herself to create the display.

She said: “We are currently in very conflicting and challenging times with Brexit and Donald Trump.

“I wanted to do this as to remember those who have fallen in any conflict. I live very near to a school and my display has been up for the children to see.

“People need to remember why we went to war in the first place and the ideologies we had at those times.

“We need to remember hundreds and thousands of people, not just from Europe or Britain but Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs, all died for these ideologies. It is called the World War.”

Ms Chaudry also said she feels very frustrated when people are criticised for not wearing a poppy.

She said: “We should not be persecuting people. Everyone has their own way of remembering those who have fallen.”

Ms Chaudry is known for the knitted displays she makes for her window. She knitted a display for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee where the Queen and Prince Phillip re-enacted scenes from Ghost, Titanic and Dirty Dancing.

Also she created a display for British astronaut Tim Peake returning back to Earth.
