I present you the combination of Louisa Dress and Mara Blouse patterns. For the most part, I used the Louisa Dress Pattern, but incorporated the yoke and long sleeve option from Mara Pattern. Instead of button placket on the front, I made a one piece yoke with some textile manipulation effects. I thought that straps would really complement the Louisa Dress pockets. So I replicated the front pocket design onto the back and connected the two pockets with straps that have mini cap sleeve-like piece at the shoulders.
The contrasting fabrics and colors of the bodice and the skirt (top is tissue linen in natural color, and the skirts is a heavier weight linen in plum-purple) make an illusion of a two-piece outfit instead of one dress.

This is really original! I love how you flipped both pattern to create your own dress!
