I am trying too, but like others have said there will be no way I could live off it. I do however want to make enough to support the machine and maybe my hobby. I tried to find a job recently but because I haven't worked in over 20 years, raising family doesn't count, finding job that would pay decent and not be fast food seemed just as difficult as starting my own business. I chose my own business over fast food. I hope to get busier as the holidays get closer and Christmas quilts need to get done but I also know I need to work on my marketing its not going to just happen because I wish it so. Marketing is where I struggle but I know it and I am working on it :-) Good Luck with whatever you decide :-)
