After paying myself $210.00 and fabric, LAQ etc. I still have $248.00 left for profit. $200.00 on a queen, 150.twin.
I do 3 shows per year and I pay taxes on approx. $11,000. per year. So I don't complain. Its not fantastic but it keeps me occupied. I certainly could not live on what I make but its nice extra income. I have friends that do twice that amount in 3-4 shows. But I don't do placemats & napkins, table toppers, runners, baby quilts, purses, etc. as they do. I just do quilts.
