____________________________________________
Now say you choose the largest machine, the Studio 2. And purchase the biggest bolt of batting. You will get 330 cuts of batting for that bolt. I tried it. And I made a video of me doing it! That's 165 Soup Cozies.
CRAZY but TRUE!!!
You will need the exact same amount of Quilting Fabric.
Most Quilting Fabric is 36 Inches by 42 - which is 1512 inches per yard!
Each cozy is 10x10 x 2 + 200 Inches 1512 divided by 200 7.50 Cozies per yard.
165 Cozies total - divided by 7.5 per yard.
Means you need Approx 24 Yards of Fabric
I would say on the high end get 24 yards of fabric and make sure it's decent quality! Don't go for $5 dollar fabric. You want to sell these for a good mark up. So 24 yards of $12 dollar a meter fabric is $288.00.
(You can find fabric on sale) Get the $20 a meter fabric that's on sale for $12
Your Cost is $288.00.
Get the $15 Dollar a Meter Fabric that's on sale for $8.
24yards at $8 is $192.
Now your Cost with the Studio Machine plus batting is $1024 plus $288 for Quilting Fabric.
You are now into this project for US $1312
or
Now your Cost with the Studio Machine plus batting is $1239 Plus $367 for Quilting Fabric
You are now into this project for Canadian $1606
Time for a name drop....Connecting Threads has awesome fabric.

You will have to buy thread - cotton thread. Which I am going to guess it $50 American or Canadian at worst.
So total cost - American $1360 some odd dollars
Canadian $1650 some odd dollars
And now it's time to sell these....
I sold over 200 this Christmas Season. They were my second best seller of the season - after my Farmhouse DIY Rugs.
I live in Canada and they sold for $15 each.
I got a total of $165 Bowl Cozies and sold them for $15 each.
Total $2475!!!
You can sell them in the US for $15 as well.
$2475 - $1650 = $825 profit. Canadian
And you only have to purchase the machine once!
$2475 - $1360 = $1115 Profit
Imagine if you will only having to purchase the fabric the second time around.

Love your video. It was so informative. I sew and sell bowl cozies on a much smaller level, at our local Farmer’s Market and a few craft events. I had no idea it could be done at the level you sale them. Thank you again for all your help.
