🌍 A Note to Our Quilty Friends in Canada, the UK, Europe & Beyond! 🇨🇦🇬🇧🇪🇺
We’d love to offer subscriptions and issue sales in every currency, but as a small (but mighty!) team, that’s a bit beyond our quilting hoop. Instead, we ask you to select Aussie dollars (AUD) at checkout – this usually works out best for your conversion rate, and your bank will do the magic of switching it to CAD, GBP, EUR, or whatever lovely currency you use. Thanks for understanding, and happy stitching from Down Under! 🇦🇺✨
