A few months ago my best friend, Leanne, and I launched an online sewing course, The Modern Girl’s Guide to Sewing. We have two courses, Beginner and Intermediate, where we teach you every one of our sewing skills. Not only will you learn to sew with the Modern Girls Sewing Guide, but you’ll ALSO be able to make Halloween costumes. Our Beginner’s Course covers the basics of sewing and gives you all the skills to make a pretty little A-line skirt, so today we’re showing you how to take that tutorial a little farther and make yourself a Halloween costume.
