OPTIONS:  I wanted a top / skirt matched set to wear together this summer. 

* There was not enough fabric to make a full drapy top.
* Lace insert options I had competed with the skirt.
STEPS:
* Keep neck band and hem on Shirt #1 and Shirt #2.
* #1: Cut up center front.  #2: Cut 8" wide strip from center back.
