Absolutely Fabulous - SOLD OUT

I'm thinking of a glam kind of girl, totally fabulous darling, in her little black dress, jewels and glittered tassel trim clutch. She reads Vanity Fair, can't resist shoe-shopping (yes I know a few like that!) and sips a cocktail or two with perfect class. Then she goes home to snuggle up in men's houndstooth flannel pyjamas! The name for this kit comes from the doorknocker notepaper - fabulous things I have to do. Shipping date: 4th April 2008.

This kit has sold out and I have a waiting list. I am doing my best to increase quantities for next month.

Approx 8"x10" houndstooth flannel
1 vintage (70s) tearsheet from 'Vanity Fair' magazine

April Sneak - April SOLD OUT

Absolutely Fabulous - a little bit shiny, a little bit glam... full kit reveal on Friday.

After increasing subscribers, there are just 3 kits left for this month. First in first served, email me quickly to reserve yours! I will also begin a waiting list.

On that note, if there is anyone who subs or who is regular and thinks they might skip this month, please let me know as soon as possible.

*edited to add: the kit allocation is now full, and I've started a waiting list.

Subscription Update *edited*

Due to limited kit numbers, no new subscriptions will be taken to begin with the April kit. New subscribers may sign up to begin with the May kit.

There will be a very small number of April kits available for 'first in first served' purchase as soon as the sneak peek goes up in a couple of days.

Any questions, please email me :)

*edited to add: The sneak peek will be posted at midday, Tuesday the 25th March, Australian Eastern Standard time.

How cool is this tshirt? A totally random find.

New Postage and Subscription Rates

Well, I had a little surprise in the post office the other day to find that Australia Post have increased their international letter rate, which affects Q Tea's international shipping rates. Any invoicing from the 5th March will reflect the new shipping rates. Pre-paid subscriptions will not be affected.

On the other hand, I've found that Singapore and the Philipines, and other Asian countries, are included in the Asia/Pacific rate group, along with New Zealand.

New Shipping Rates:

Australia: AU$1.00 per kit
Asia/Pacific: AU$2.70 per kit
Other International: AU$4.00 per kit
