How to create a solid part that tapers from one oval to a second oval with different dimensions?

The ovals on the sketch plane would share the same origin, but have a different dimension for both the major and minor axes.
For example
Oval 1: Major axis 8, minor axis 6
Oval 2: Major Axis 10, minor axis 7
Assume the part thickness (along the extrusion axis) is 10mm.
This might be thought of as a tapered cylinder, or truncated and tapered cone, where the taper amount is different in the x and y dimensions, where z is the extrusion axis. If this can be performed with draft, what are the steps to perform?
Thank you.
