Applique work

Applique work in India it is mainly practised in Pipli, Odisha for banners during the Lord Jagannatha Rath Yatra. But it also finds use in the design of sarees. Appliqué work refers to the technique by which patterns are created by attaching a smaller coloured patch onto a larger base fabric mostly of contrasting colour or texture, by stitching, or glueing the patch on the larger fabric. The edges of the patch may have the ends folded under or left as they are. The attaching is done by straight stitch, satin stich or reverse Applique. Embroidery machines have taken over what earlier used to be done by hand. Its application is best for any work that has to be viewed from a distance such as banners. The motifs for the Appliqué may be white or coloured with the fabric body of contrasting colour and could have intricate embroidery and mirror work also to make it highly ornamental. Motifs generally are elephant, parrot, peacock, duck, creepers, flowers such as lotus and jasmine. Half moon, Sun and Rahu (mythical Rakshasa) are also popular subjects. Colours used are limited to red, green, blue, brown and black. There are some delightful Applique work saree creations in the market. Take the maroon coloured malmal pure cotton saree.
