Create a face from one outer and inner inner edge loop (edges of shell)

I've included a screenshot below. Essentially I want to create a face or some number of faces that connects these two edge loops. They are the inner and outer edges of a shell. How should I form geometry here to close up the shell?

you can do it - it's not obvious, and to be honest, I wasn't 100% sure it would work when I tried it, but it does.

 

  1. create a boundary patch from the outer loop
  2. use Trim Surface to trim away the inner loop by selecting the inner body as a trim tool, and clicking on the center region as portion to remove
