Yes I think that you can BUT I know that it doesn't happen over night. I've been designing for over a year but only selling in a store for about 3-4 months and I haven't made enough to cover a meal at McDonalds yet. Unfortunately!
That said, I do it for the love and know that it simply takes time to market and get your name out there and gather a following. That is my problem - self promotion. I am a busy person. Very busy. I barely have time to design so getting kits actually put together is a challenge, but I enjoy doing it. Now saying "hey I did this and it is for sale here" is another story. I am hoping that I'll start to clear some of my schedule and be able to get more out and in the store and the rest will start to come too. It is hard to say "hey I am new and exciting" when I release a kit every 2-3 months.
I hope to make enough to have petty cash to go into a craft store and spend $50 for a project I know I won't get to right away but want to do (like make a quilt for my best friend for years and years) and NOT feel guilty about spending the money. And to support my computer habit.
