Episode 56
Monday, 5 October, 2026
What happens when you decide to turn the dream of owning a quilt shop into reality?In Episode 56 of The Sewcial Hour, I’m sitting down with one of my sewing best friends, Kelli Petersen of Sew High Creations, to talk about what it’s really like to start a quilt shop from the ground up.About a year ago, Kelli made the decision to chase a dream and open a quilt shop in SE Iowa. That dream officially became a reality in May 2026, when she opened the doors to Sew High Creations and launched her online shop.Now, nearly five months into being a quilt shop owner, Kelli is opening up about the journey, the good, the bad, the unexpected, and everything in between.We talk about what it was like to take the leap, what she has learned since opening, the realities of running a quilt shop, the things she didn't expect, and what it's really like to turn a creative dream into a business.This is such an honest and personal conversation, and I’m incredibly grateful to Kelli for being willing to share so much of her journey. Starting a business is rarely as simple as the dream makes it look, and I think you'll appreciate hearing the real story behind Sew High Creations.Shop Sew High CreationsWhether you're in SE Iowa and want to shop in person or you're shopping from home, you can find Kelli and Sew High Creations online and in her shop!🛍️ Shop Online:https://www.sewhighcreations.com/📍 Shop In Person:20490 102nd AvenueMediapolis, IA 52637📸 Follow Sew High Creations:https://www.instagram.com/sewhigh_creations/Connect with The Sewcial HourFollow The Sewcial Hour on Instagram and Facebook.🎥 Subscribe to our YouTube channel for video episodes.💬 Join The Sewcial Sewists private Facebook group and continue the conversation with fellow sewists.⭐ Enjoying the podcast?
