Harrington and Hannah Easter Postcard

As soon as I saw this free pattern at The Raspberry Rabbits I knew I wanted to make them.
I've made fabric cards before, but not wool.
I decided making three would be just as easy as one (almost).
I had all the ingredients on hand, so that helped since it was too cold and snowy to go out shopping.
I was a little worried that they might get beat up in the USPS system, but Mom called to say hers arrived in perfect condition.

The bunny cards are adorable! Great job!

I think that special "post cards" like this are treated extra special in the mail and do arrive less beat up. I made one for my grandson when he was in camp and it arrived in perfect condition. Of course, the amount of time it was studied by the clerk at the post office made me wonder if it would even get there at all. *lol*

I bet your post cards rec'd extra attention in their travels!

What a ray of sunshine to receive in the mail. I wonder if the kids will be hunting for eggs in their snowsuits this year!

So adorable. I downloaded the free pattern too but haven't started it yet. Now I have the inspiration. Hugs

Oh those are so pretty. How about wrapping them in cellophane? Would that protect them?

Smiles,

I love these postcards. I've got to twist Cindy's arm so she'll teach me how to do this--I've got grandchildren who need some.

Hoppy Easter!
