WASHINGTON — Put away the overpriced catalogs and close out the web browsers. This Halloween, there’s no need to spend a lot of money on store-bought costumes.

Allison Lince-Bentley, sewing instructor and owner of Tilden House Studio, said making your own costume can be quick, easy and inexpensive.
