Have you heard the saying "Mad as a March hare?
Well, Harrington and I are practicing our "mad looks." Don't we look mad and grumpy? Bring us a snack lady. Like now.
What's that Mama? It doesn't mean mad like grumpy mad, but mad like crazy love sick fools mad? Oh...ok we get it. We can do that.
How's this?
Well then, moving on. Let's see. Ok, we'll tell you about our good friend, Sheila of Sheila's quilt world.
Last year, she participated in "The Adventures of Harrington and Hannah free BOM. Patterns and Kits still available in our SHOP. She asked Mama if she could use us (our appliques) in a postcard. Mama said, "Why sure! How fun!" (Thank you for respecting Mama's work and asking permission)
Then, Sheila sent Mama a postcard! Isn't it wonderful? We love it!
So, this year, Mama asked Sheila if she could use the postcard in this post (respecting Sheila's work). She said, "Why sure!"
Mama decided that since Easter is in March this year, she would design an Easter postcard featuring us and share it with you! Here it is. It's made from National Nonwovens Wool Felt and uses Valdani, 3 strand, colorfast floss.
The pattern is FREE for you! But, Mama also put together 13 (only 13) complete kits. The kits feature, wool, floss, fabric, interfacing, and fusible web. There is enough of each to make two postcards! You can hop over to our SHOP and collect the pattern under Free Designs. You can also purchase the kits under kits. We thank you for your help in supporting us with your purchases. Thank you!
However, since this is Mid-Month Madness and we are as mad as March Hares, we are also having a giveaway!
you will also receive 1 yard each of Mrs. March's fabric collection! A total of 9 yards of fabric! Woo hoo!
To enter our giveaway, simply leave a comment on this post. As always, we love our friends and followers. If you are signed up as a follower (right sidebar) you will receive two chances. This giveaway is open to every friend worldwide.
So sign up as a follower and pass the word to your friends. We will pick the winner using the random number generator on Wednesday, March 20, the first day of Spring.
And...just because music is so fun and we all need to Just Have a Good Time! Here's a little party music from Lindsey Stirling. Listen, dance, sing, and have good time! (You can be silly here. You fit right in and we love you.)
Happy Mid-Month Madness. Glad you can be mad as March Hares with us! Woo hoo! :)
xx,
Harrington, Hannah and Michelle

Wow!! GREAT postcard!!! And that video is sooooooo fun!! I think Lindsey is your sister!! You guys look alike and I can just see you rockin' out like her :-)
What a wonderful sweet card! Harrington and Hannah look very swish as usual. Harrington always looks so handsome. And all that material how yummy!
Now how could those sweet bun-buns look mad? This is just so wonderful and thank you to both ladies for inspiring each other and adding to our inspiration.
Aren't Sheila's postcards the best? How clever of her to pair up with Hannah and Harrington.

Thank you for sharing the pattern for the post card! I am going to try to create one over the weekend! It is so adorable!!! Perfect for this time of year! You and the bunnies are so very creative!!!
I so wish that Harrington and Hannah would teach a class in bunny manners! Our bunny all 14 pounds needs some lessons...Baby Cat has been nesting with my fabric stash! Not nice!
She is a rescue bunny and when we brought her home, she was so very tiny she looked like a baby kitten...thus the name Baby Cat.
