Hm, if you do tailoring vs cotton farming, I think the time involved in making 10 pants is less than the time to grow 2 stacks of cotton. Of course, gardening also allows you to grow all kinds of vegetables in the same time, so it's hard to come up with a good equation.

I'd agree tailoring is not the most efficient way to make money. I was more objecting to the "money sink" phrase. If you happen to enjoy crafting, it's a pretty pleasant way to make a bit of spare cash. (Basically all my money comes from work orders, primarily leatherworking. I don't play that much, so being able to turn in work orders every 30 days works fine for me.)
