This is the first time I made the top and I chose view C. It went together very quickly and the result is quite nice looking. My only alteration is to cut 3" off the bottom, as the top fell at a bad spot on my hip. Although I am fairly long waisted for my height, this top was too long as is. I am pleased with the length now. I would not wear this top without the belt - it looks too much like maternity wear otherwise
Conclusion: All in all, this was a quick and easy outfit. I am behind in my sewing and I am in dire need of some summer clothes. I was able to complete both pieces (from layout to cutting to sewing and finishing) in about 6 hours. This will be a nice, cool addition to my summer wardrobe. I will certainly make both pieces again.

I couldn't decide whether to get this shirt pattern, but yours looks great so I will have to get it during the next sale. Nice outfit!
Yeah, Shannon is sewing, Shannon is sewing! Yippee! I wish I had a little man jumping around to insert...but anyhoo, this is a great summer outfit. So what's up next!?
Very nice outfit. Love the checks in the top.
That plaid is great! Love the top.
That plaid top is adorable. I have some yellow plaid in my stash that has been aging for years. It'll be perfect in this style. I hope you don't mind if I shamelessly copy this.
Love it! What a nice outfit!
