I did this 2 years ago for a magazine article.
I had to track the money spent, any money made, the hours I spent ironing, washing, cutting, sewing, shopping, etc.
it was more than shocking...it was a JOB that paid in reverse!
In that one year I spent $28,752 on craft/quilting related items. I made $3,153 selling some blocks, tops and patterns I would not use. I spent roughly 3,689 hours in the sewing room or shopping for items!

I never have before, but I decided that I would try this year. I added a page to my excel budget sheet where I add anything quilt related. At the end of the year, I am sure I will be surprised. And I may never do it again.
