Summer Camp Wednesday [The Park]

Today's beautiful weather was made for sitting outside and doing craft projects, which was good, because that's what you were doing. A number of tables were set up around the park, each filled with macrame and micro macrame--which was a thing Anakin had learned this week-- supplies: cording of various colors, beads, crystals, and other bits of shiny things (though the supplies were getting depleted as the squirrels kept stealing them), and a few macrame patterns mostly for dresses and other clothing-like items.

Even more worryingly, there was a runway set out down the middle of the area, along with two chairs set aside for judges.

"Right!" Anakin said, yelling into his bullhorn again. "Today you will be working in teams under a one-hour time limit to create a piece of macrame fashionwear. It does not have to be very large--it's not going to be for any of you to wear. The dimensions are provided at your stations, and the models will be arriving shortly."

Anyone have a bad feeling about that? Good.

"This week's winners will win the highly coveted Billy the Bass singing fish--" he glanced around. "Where'd that kriffing thing get off to?" He raised his hand and the fish, propelled by its own power and shrieking Sabatoge flew in from...somewhere.

"...that was odd." He glared at the assembled crowd. "Please refrain from stealing the fish until after the winner is determined this week. Listen carefully for your name and then join your team. You will have an hour to learn how to macrame and then your models will arrive and parade down the catwalk. The winners will be determined by our fashion experts Sparkle and Brooke. Your teams are as follows:

Paris, Seivarden, and Astrid
Peter, Sabine, and Tip
Jason, Ahsoka, and Norman
Verity, Aphra, and Rosa
Bobby, Mitsutada, and Hardison
Liam, Miguel, and Uma
Hannibal, Cristina, and Rufus
Steve, Yang, and Sidon
Amaya, Kitty, and Beaker
Hera, Kanan, and Breq
Jono, Kathy, and Rey
Eliot and Ino

You may begin...now."

And a giant glowing timer that Anakin had gotten from...somewhere... began ticking down the hour.

"I do kind of like the little round yellow-green ones," Norman admitted, looking over their supplies.

They reminded him of spirit orbs, which... he wasn't going to say aloud. But it was a nice touch, anyway.

Ahsoka had started hoarding the ones that looked like silka beads, so she wasn't going to judge. "We can probably work with that colour scheme."

It'd go with the gremlin's skintone!

"So I guess we should... pick a pattern?" Jason said, looking dubiously at those supplies. "I'm pretty good at knots, but I've never made clothing out of rope, so."

"I think that's about the same amount of experience as most people here have," Norman offered. "So... it can't hurt to just pick a pattern and go, I think."

The hard part was going to be getting it onto the model anyway.

Ahsoka was considering just pointing out to the gremlin that going do the catwalk put it closer to Anakin. Because she was a good Padawan.

"Seems like a plan," she said cheerfully.

Norman pulled out his phone and started poking around the internet for macramé patterns.

"... At least half of these are just really weird owls," he reported.

"I vote for a skirt," Jason said, peering over Norman's shoulder at those patterns. "Mostly because then we don't have to deal with sleeves or legs or anything."

A skirt would basically be like... a weird net, right? He could do that.
