Welcome to a new pattern making class, in today’s class I’m going to teach you how to make a sweetheart neckline.
A strapless sweetheart neckline is a V-neckline with a curve at the bottom and is very common in dresses and corsetry.
Today’s class is perfect to master corrective darts, that’s why it’s important that before watching this class you watch the corrective darts class and the strapless neckline class first.
Today we start by drafting the neckline in the shape of a heart, both on the front and on the back pattern.
Then we will go on to remove the ease to make sure that this neckline fits perfectly because you already know that the pattern blocks have some ease so that people can move freely.
Once the pattern fits like a glove now we have to clean the seams and we have to make a holding system.
We can make different systems for this neckline stays in place, but the most common for this neckline is to put boning.
Today we are going to start a little introduction of where we put the boning in our patterns and how we mark them.

As in all my classes, I am going to give you all the necessary measurements to make the same sample that I have made, but remember that all the measurements are for reference and you may have to change them according to your body or the body of your client.
Remember that these measurements can also change depending on the fabric you want to use, which is why it is so necessary to make a toile.
As always, if you have any questions about today’s class, remember that you can send me an email through your user account, under the support tab.
