What I've been up to......

Man, coming up with titles is hard.

I have been feeling rather uncreative as of late, starting projects, giving up on projects, thinking of projects, not doing projects....although I have managed to accomplish a little. I made myself a shirt, using a free pattern from Burdastyle. Click here for free pattern!
I changed it up a bit from the original pattern, by making a band around the bottom to cinch it in a bit (thus highlighting the still remaining baby pouch). It is such a comfy shirt, probably one of my favorites, because its so light and comfy. Its like wearing my hubby's tees, only better looking :) I love the batwing sleeves too.
And here is a close up of my AWESOME shoes! I love these things (thats why they are a little scuffed) I wear them all the time! I love how they aren't the  same.

And now...dun dun duuun...I need advice/ opinions. Please help. I began making a dress yesterday for my 5 month old, and am a little stuck on the sleeves.
Its kinda hard to tell in this pic, but instead of just using bias tape to make a little spaghetti strap, I sewed it on and then tucked it under and topstitched around the aarm hole...should I undo and just bias tape it or do the weird sew/tuck/flip thing??
