The booth is set up with what appears to be a very specific scheme in mind. All the colours match perfectly, despite there being a lot of them. Sashes and ribbons hang from wooden frames that have stripes painted vertically in a gradient from orange to green. A small ghoul sits behind the booth, proudly sporting the colours of the undead house head to toe. At times she's knitting, other times she's making use of the sewing machine tucked in a corner but she makes an effort to greet you and answer any questions you have. There's a pile of joining forms as well as biographies on the club members.
It also appears the ghoul has made some effort to set up some games with wonderful prizes to win!

Welcome to the Sewing Club's booth! A newly formed club, it's run by Sophie Van Rotte and Steffani Carron and aims to bring together those that love to sew and design as those that are willing to learn. Don't be afraid to ask questions! The club members are scattered about the grounds but Sophie is always close by.

✄Thread the Needle
Think you're an expert at sewing, do ya? Well let's just see how good you are! Thread this tiny needle here as quick as you can. You may play this game once a day.
Roll 1d100
1-25: Er.. You take a long time. Way too long. Sophie hands you something she just finished sewing because she feels sorry for you. She pats you on the head and tells you maybe you'll do better next time. You win an IC prize! 26-50: It takes you a bit of time and fidgeting but you eventually get the thread in the eye of the needle. Good thing, too, because Sophie looked like she was getting frustrated. You win a tier 1 prize! 51-75: You have to twist and lick the ends of the thread and it still takes you longer than you would have liked but Sophie seems impressed. You win a tier 2 prize! 76-99: You get the thread through with a small amount of difficulty and Sophie claps and gives you a high five. It seems she wasn't expecting you to do so well! You win a tier 3 prize! 100; Wow. Are you sure you haven't done this before? Sophie seems shocked and it takes her a few seconds to snap back to reality. She grins and slides a joining form your way with a look that says maybe you shouldn't say no... You win a ticket in the raffle OR a prize from any of the tiers
✄Design-A-Tote
Using this template design a tote for your student! Feel free to use the pieces provided for you or make one completely from scratch! ICly your student is starting from scratch; from picking fabric to putting it all together. RP the dice roll results accordingly and add up your final score for your prize! This game may only be played once per character but you can make as many totes as you like!
Designing your bag Sophie says that sketching is the most important part of designing. Without it you'd have no idea what you're doing and you'd end up lost and confused with no muse. Roll 1d4 Odd: Sophie looks at your sketch and makes a face before turning away. Maybe it isn't as awesome as you thought it was.. +1 point Even: Sophie seems impressed with your design and gives a nod of approval.+2points
Stitching your bag There's a spare sewing machine Sophie's hauled from the club. It's already set up for you to use and Sophie gives a quick crash course on how it works. She seems very protective of the machine and keeps casting weary looks at you as you sew.. Roll 1d6 1-2 You somehow manage to get your bag tangled up in the sewing machine. Sophie looks at you and you're almost certain you saw fire in her eyes. She pulls your mangled bag from the machine and shoots you a look that says you won't be using the machine ever again. +0 3-4 Your stitches are a little uneven but at leas the bag looks like it'll stay together! +1 points 5-6 Your stitches are neat and even and Sophie seems impressed. +2 points
Adding extras! There's a pile of patches and iron on templates. They vary in shape and size and some have been damaged. Sophie says to help yourself and have fun~! Roll 1d6 1-2 You don't put on any extras and Sophie leans forward to whisper in your ear "Less is more." At least you didn't set anything on fire. +1 point 3-4 You reached in and grabbed a few iron-ons from the pile and iron them on. They're a little crooked but you put them on all by yourself. +2 points 5-6 Your match your decals to your bag perfectly. Each one is put on expertly. Sophie gives you a pat on the back for your efforts. +3 points
Show of your work! It's time to show off your tote to Sophie and see how you did! Add up your points and match your score below. 3 Your tote is falling apart and you somehow managed to burn it in places. Sophie takes the time to fix it and gives you a little something extra for your effort. You win an IC prize! 4 It's not the best but it resembles a tote at least. Sophie fixes the parts you messed up and even gives you a reward. You win a tier 1 prize! 5 It shows you have promise and Sophie seems pleased with your effort. She gives you a few pointers but doesn't need to make any drastic chances. You win a tier 2 prize! 6 Your tote is near perfect and Sophie couldn't be happier. She slips a joining form in your bag, along with a little extra something for your hard work. You win a tier 3 prize! 7 Your tote looks like something someone paid good money for. Everything matches perfectly and Sophie is in awe. You win a ticket in the raffle OR a prize from any tier.
✄Guess the number of Buttons
There seems to be a jar with buttons of various sizes and colour on the bench of the booth. Why not have a go at guessing the number of buttons?
Roll 1d100 If you roll a multiple of 5 (5,10,15,20 etc) you have won and may pick a prize from any tier or get entered into the raffle.
A whoosh of breath came her string of words... The booth was just too cute. She had finished changing out of sopping wet clothes from attempting to fish. Sewing was her thing.
Perhaps she would do well at this booth -- oh how gorgeous the whole booth was.
Brow furrowed, she attempted to thread the needle quickly with fingers still relatively numb.
edit:
Ok... her fingers weren't doing well for her.
The booth attendant ended up handing her a lovely red and black bow. 'Fin would be back -- she had to prove she was capable of threading a silly needle.
Kari had stumbled across a very odd booth about... sewing? At least it had some interesting games.
Stepping up to the first one, she was given a needle and told to thread it... simple, right?
Simple indeed. The thread went in seamlessly and Kari had to wave her hand in front of the ghoul running the booth to break her out of her shock. Then Kari was the one surprised when a joining form was slid across the table towards her with a look from the ghoul that promised doom if she refused. Her treat companion huddled closer to her neck, matching the suddenly fearful reaper's anxiety.
"Um... as much as I would like to... I'm not enrolled yet... but if I ever do, I'll definitely see about joining", she replied with the best smile she could muster through her nerves. Maybe she should just take her reward and leave before something bad happened?

I would like a Poms Skeletal fro the tier 2 prizes, please. sn: Myouki
Darcious had never really thought about sewing. He stepped over to it and eye the booth with curious but glazed yellow eyes, their thin slits opening and shutting at the different objects to show his true animal nature.
He saw a small spool of thread and a needle sitting out with others trying their luck. Being quite dexterous with all four hands in his true form, he smirked. How different could it be?
He deftly pulled the thread and prized the needle in his other hand, lined them up and...
missed. He snorted with disdane and tried again, holding the needle up and sliding the bunching end through the hole. It stuck fast and he curled up his lip, roaring at it, as if that would will it through the hole.
Finally, he sent a great splatter of goo through his porous fingertips, slicking the end and slicing it through, holding it up wordlessly and staring at the tenant with rage and holy triumph dancing as fire in his pupils.

I won a tier 1 prize! But i dunno what to get! emotion_kirakira I don't really know what they do. So can I give the prize to Never Crazy?
Once that was all done, he looked to the buttons and sighed, putting his paw up and starting to count, mouthing the words to himself, fumbling and faultering the entire way, making up most of the numbers and fudging the order.
"Thirty." He finally snarled, the first thing he had spoken. He was a creautre of thought and little verbality.

Lycania looked around nervously. She never really was good with sewing or craft building. Especially with needles...that tended to end with blood everywhere--her blood and bandages. But the booth looked cute and interesting so why not? Why not test her luck again? She did win a cute pom pet from another booth.
Watching others pick up a needle and try to sow Lycania started to follow suit...and failed. Oh well! She was about to start another game when the rules popped out at her stating she won a prize for playing. "OOoh," Lycania perked up when she found out she won a sweater jacket. Monster pride!

Lycania picked up her jacket and moved onto the next game. "Buttons huh." Shifting her jacket Lyca moved in closer and bent down to play. Maybe she would have better luck with this game. "Awwh, oh well." Smiling at those in charge of the game Lyca thanked them for the fun and moved on to the next booth.
