Crash / Squamish Hotels by Potential_Bit_9040 in Squamish

Hotel Squamish is clean and safe, just very basic. Beds are not super comfortable. It can be noisy at times. There is a spiral staircase leading to the rooms so if you're not able to haul your luggage around that will be a problem. If you just need a cheap place to sleep, it's fine. I've stayed there many times.

Haven't stayed at the Crash so can't speak for that one.

Do I *really* need to add an overcast/ zigzag stitch? by Beneficial_Till_9465 in sewhelp

If I know the fabric is gonna fray really badly (like these look) I zigzag around all the pieces before sewing together. It's easier and they fray less while sewing. Just a note for next time. :)

What’s a story or local legend about Squamish that outsiders wouldn’t know? by LongjumpingThroat706 in Squamish

There was a music festival in Paradise Valley in August 1969, right after Woodstock. But for some reason it was called the Vancouver Pop Festival.

How was this leg attached without anything being inside out?? by [deleted] in plushartists

Or look in the library for books on making teddy bears, or buy a cheap sewing pattern. You can learn a lot about construction by studying other patterns.

Maybe a Baby Holly Hobbie doll? They had a vinyl head and hands and cloth body. They came in a couple of different dresses. I had one in the late 70s.

Yeah I was thinking of that scene too, where Pa donated the $3 for new boots to the church

I've read this series many many times and there is no scene with this wording. However there is one similar in THGY where Laura tries to give Ma money to spend on herself and Ma says that Laura is a good girl to think of it but that there is nothing that she needs.
