PATTERN CONCEPT WORKSHEET COLLECTION NARRATIVE

- CIRQUE DU JOIE -

Joyful screeches hover while children run through the big tents and bright colorful lights penetrate
the night sky as the carousel and ferris wheel illuminate the fair grounds. The smell of cotton candy
and popcorn wafts through the air as children excitedly make their way to see the show. The ring
leader stands at attention, garnering the attention of the audience as he introduces his first act, the
flying trapeze girls. Gasps and Giggles weave in and out of the audience as the girls swoop through
the air while silly clowns try to catch them. The summer nights spent adventuring at the circus are
a memory to be cherished for years to come.

The cirque du joie collection plays off the feelings of eras past with a modern, playful illustrated
approach to prints and iconography. Spirited novelty prints showcase animals and other circus
theme visuals and all over prints create a playful style that allows the imagination to run free. Hand
drawn elements and a pastel color story remind us of retro times past. This collection is inspired by
play, by memories and by joie. Fun, vibrant and imaginative. Unabashedly creative. Welcome to
Cirque du joie.
