Are you "good" enough to support yourself with your work? Are you knowledgeable enough to buy, display, teach, and market all that is involved with quilting?
Could you bear to turn your "passion" into a job?
I wouldn't want to turn it into a job. I love doing what I do and don't mind making some items for people and wouldn't mind quilting for people. But I have a job and I know I will get a check every week. I sew and do crafts to fill my spare time. I am happy selling some things, it helps fuel the hobby!!!! Keeps me buying more fabric and new things to keep me sewing.
