So I started sewing a lot when I was unemployed this summer and doing other crafts too. Today I added up everything I've made and what it would have cost to buy from etsy instead. Grand total? I spent $225 at Joann Fabrics and would have spent almost $800 at Etsy.

It's mainly baby clothes and supplies, and also some christmas decorations. I can't decide if this is good or bad though! It's a significant chunk of change, but doesn't exactly make up for the time I wasn't working either!
