Personal Sewing Academy: Bodice and Skirt Master Patterns

I've already got one master pattern down, which I am pleased about.  My 1 Dress project is based on the following:
I took the princess lines from V8648, the neckline from vintage Butterick 4616 and the 3/4 sleeve with 3 elbow darts from vintage Simplicity 3108 to make my bodice and skirt sloper. 

The two fabric swatches were my choices for My 1 Dress project.  Of course, now I'm not sure I even want to line the dress: The silky print would be great as a slip.

Your ideas for the dress sound terrific. I agree, a separate slip is a wonderful thing to have in the wardrobe, to wear under other dresses too.
Thanks so much for your lovely comment too! :)
