Description
Edit 15/11/12: Fixed some fill errors (thanks ) and made some anatomical changes (thanks ). Still got some thinking about the BG to do.As a certain well known t-shirt site wants $25 for a shirt (OK) and $48 for shipping ( ) plus import duty (12%) and a 'handling fee' of Β£8... Well, I think it's time I put together something to be printed on a shirt myself. It'd probably work as a button too.
I'm not so sure about the text/backdrop, any suggestions?
Original by me:

How much would it be to have stickers of this?

You are perfectly welcome to have a sticker or stickers printed. Providing that you don't sell them for profit. If you did I'd appreciate seeing a photo of how it turns out!

In the process of making this.
Will update you with pictures when I receive them.
I'll be giving them out at conventions.

Cool. I had completely forgotten! Hope they turn out well.

Well They came out very well if I say so, attached is a picture or two of them, I plan to pass them out to friends of mine
I used www.psprint.com/
and they were relatively cheap when I ordered them (maybe $30, but I may had a deal and did not know it).
Again thanks again for permission for me to use your artwork, you Rock!!

IMO, the "arms" are a excessively thin, and the empty space between the neck and the mane could probably look better if the neck were thicker.
The eyes look better than the sketch (again, IMO) because this way looks like she is going to faint/fall on the couch (looks more dramatic).
Maybe using some handwriting-style font would make it look more elegant, but might affect readability. Also, empathizing "The.Worst.Possible.Thing!" with bolder letters might cause the image to look not symmetric, so might not be recommendable.
Maybe writing it like...
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Darling! That is
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β
The, Worst, Possible, Thing!
...so it can be read more easily. Maybe just Using Capital Letters. But the people that knows the show already will emphasize that, so maybe it's not necessary.
The backdrop could be an out-of-focus boutique (so it doesn't distract the view from Rarity) but given the colors, probably wouldn't combine...

Thanks for the feedback, I've taken a while to reply because I wanted to try out some of your suggestions first, but I've not yet got around to it.
The thin bits were deliberate to try and emphasise the movement that would be taking place. But you're right about the empty space, it's something I'll have a play with.
Eye wise, my pencil drawings are only ever a rough idea, I upload them mainly as a proof that I drew it 
I still want to have a play with fonts, it can be so difficult to find the right one sometimes...

$48 for shipping!? That's insanity! Go to VistaPrint and have it printed. Or maybe Custom Ink.

Yep, that was my plan...

Alrightey then.

Yeah I feel you, completely bummed me out when I saw the shipping costs of those damn teeee shirts.
Gave up and bought a couple custom coin from a fellow Brony 
Backdrop is alright I guess.
Maybe shift the text and rims to her mane's colors, and making use of a more elegant font if possible.
It's Rarity after all.
Looks pretty good either way.

Yeah, I know, it's alright but not great. Hmm...
Thanks for the suggestions, I'll have a play with it sometime this week.
