Sew Colette: Macaron, giveaway winner, and a thank you
It's time to start sewing our Macaron muslins. How many of you out there are sewing along with Sarah, Rochelle, and I? I'm pretty excited about this dress, it's super cute! I've had it in my stash for a while, but have been hesitant to sew it without extra help. I'm glad I'm sewing this up with you guys :) If you need help taking your measurements, tracing your pattern, or cutting out your muslin then please see this post.

I wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone who commented on my last post about my husband's cousin, Tyler Clary. It was so nice of so many bloggers to comment and email me about Tyler's performance and when I see him next I will pass it along. It could be a while though, the last time I saw him was for Thanksgiving haha. For this years Olympics I have been glued to the tv, it's just fun rooting for someone when you feel like you have a connection with them. Thank you everyone for thinking good thoughts for him!
He was on the Today show this morning and was interviewed by Matt Lauer. I watch that show every morning and it was so surreal to see Tyler on there! They filmed a little segment where Tyler's mom and dad got to see him for the first time during the Olympics and it was so heartwarming. I was literally bawling!
