Connect the end of bottom lines to end of top lines, and this is the cutting line for the interfacing.

Draw a one inch line perpendicular to the slit line and centered on the bottom. There should be approximately half an inch beyond the end of slit. Measure and mark bottom of slit along the slit line. Mark two points 3/8” from the center out along line. Draw a parallel line down from top along the seam allowance. Draw a perpendicular line of 1.5” centered at the top of line.

On a piece of fusible interfacing draw a straight line the desired length of slit + ½” + seam allowance.

Sew the center front to the center back at the shoulders, with right sides together.

I did not serge my princess seam edges before sewing, to aid in alignment, and instead finished the seam allowances after sewing the princess seams.

Serge or finish the bottoms, the shoulders, and side edges.

I also chose the top width of slit to be ¾”. Mark on wrong side the lining center front, along center, the desired depth of slit. Mark the top and bottom of center front and back.

Transfer all markings needed to accurately align the princess seams.

Stay stitch around the necklines and arm openings.

Cut two side backs (mirror image), and cut two side fronts (mirror image). Cut one each on the fold of the front center and back center pieces. The bodice should consist of four pattern pieces: center front, center back, side front, and side back.

Cut out 2 sets of bodice pieces, one from lining and one from garment fabric.

The bodice is fully lined, and sleeveless, with flutter sleeves attached in the princess seams which fall down shoulder and over arm. This walks an experienced sewist through the steps to make this bodice.

Full disclosure my measurements at time of making this garment was 49 bust, 50 waist, 59 hips. On my figure that is smallest dimension, and therefore this garment is designed to accentuate that area. This garment is designed to cinch in under the bust. This will serve as a foundation off which you can draft the rest of this garment. You will need a well fitting bodice pattern that is sleeveless, with princess seams.

Thank you.To begin, this is not a pattern.
