His forefathers Maguni Mahapatra, Loknath Mahapatra, Siba Mahapatra, Kanduri Mahapatra, Ramakrishna Mahapatra, Lenkudi Mahapatra were all fcb¢ks. The sons of Sri Ganesh Mahapatra are also sebckji. There are 14 families, the adult members of which, work for the temple. There are about 4 more families who do not work for the temple. Sri Madhab Mahapatra, one of the sons of Ganesh Mahapatra, has married the grand-daughter of Hatta Maharana of Pipli. The applique-work fabrics in shape of canopy, /r¢Ja (banner), ch4czJfz. are not used inside the precincts of the temple. These articles are used outside the temple in festivals and processions. According to Sri Sadashiva Ratha Sharma of Puri some of the items like dice board (made of patch work on cloth) are used during Kumar Purnima festival and MagczcJfea fapj. (made of cloth with fine applique work) is worn by K¢%s¢ in ,Kcr#s¢bacJfe¢ drama. Some of the frcsas are called Gczr#cJcz frajr¢ (yellow background) and some Gob7.#cJ¢ /r¢far (black background) carried at the head of processions during festivals.

Embroidery work with motifs of fish, frog etc. on black cloth is used in g¢/.a"c7dfo¢ra#¢ bcsa (decoration of the deity) on „¢g¢¢ p!/r#z.rna day. A canopy called !rJ."##di. ch¢#d#¢ with motifs of 27 stars and geometrical forms

Very often they purchase these banners from Pipli on their way to Puri. They also carry from Pipli small canopies for their household deities and for festivals in tbeir home towns. Baf#as or bags are attractive and convenient souvenirs for them to carry. Beside the temple, the "c}Jfes' (monastic houses), of which there are over seventy jn Purl town, use /r"fcrs, char2dwaL5 and chAczJjz.es during festivals and processions. Canopies, !r¢sias and ch4aJfz.cs can still be seen in Jagannath bellav mafA and in Oriya maffe. The Rajas of feudatory states jn Orissa possessed large canopies, /r¢f¢s', chAc{f/z.cs etc. which they got from Pjpli for festivals in their states. With the merger of the feudatory states with

Orissa and the gradual deterioration of the financial position of many "c7fAJ, the demand for large decorative canopies, chfe¢/fj.cs', frcjiaJ etc. has dwindled. While few decorative canopies still continue to be made for Government offices, the decorative canopies and cfefec7f/z.€s are no longer in large demand except occasionally by temples.

There are d¢r/.!. caste inhabitants in other places of Puri and Cuttack districts. They however do not do applique work. These Jar/.J.J are socially well-organised. Every year a me/a is held at Kedargourf (in Bhubaneswar town

DIMENsloNs, FORMs, MOTIFs, LAyouT ANI] sTiTCHns: Dimensions: The applique patches vary in size from very large pieces of I metre to very small pieces, as small as 1. 3 cms.

#refi[£:g:e::::tjeosn::uTa£[eyfifg:Festt::eaTtrreas:i:asnt;]¥;:sdaf%:rna:ea:ee%T#:fdcfau[£ns;Sea,p:,.tfohuegshmvaa[:yTLegceasc:::ding to the ultimate size of the piece and details presented. While the cut-out figures are flat, some specially prepared motifs are stuffed with cotton or are in folded cloth or gathered, which adds depth to the figures to make them more naturalistic.

Forms and Motifs : The yearning for beauty in applique work conceived all imaginable motifs in geometric, abstract, schematised, actual life and stylised forms from social, natural, astral and mythical fields varying in different regions. Unlike the craft in other places, the craft in Orissa being connected with religious festivals and processions, geometric, actual life and stylised motifs from natural and astral fields like creeper, tree, flower, bird, animal, rchcf etc., are common. Among the flowers m¢//;. and p¢dm¢ (lotus) are favoured. Peacock, gander and duck are popular among birds. The elephant is a very widely used motif among the animals. It may be of interest to note that natural, abstract and schematised forms from social and mythical fields are absent in Orissa although they are common in the craft in Gujarat, Rajasthan and Bihar where themes of social and war processions and of c7cwhar with motifs of elephants, bullocks, camels, riders on horses, king or queen on Aondcrfe on an elephant, lady in skirt and blouse, soldier, mythical gods and goddesses, parrot etc., besides geometrical motifs are very popular. As indicated above some motifs are cut out flat, some are specially prepared and some are exclusively embroidered. Some of the cut-out motifs and the forms in which they are used are given in figures 1 to 16b while some of the specially prepared motifs and the various stages in which they are made are given in figures 17 to 22. Some exclusively embroidered motifs are shown in figures 23 to 26b. Photographs of very fine embroidered motifs on velvet in the collection of Ganesh Mahapatra of Puri are given in figures 27 to 30. A list of motifs commonly used has been given elsewhere.

Layout: The layout of various motifs and patterns vary according to the shape of the piece. The canopy has a large centre piece which may be a square or a circle within a square. This centre piece is then bounded by several borders of different widths, one outside the other, till the edge is reached. In the umbrella and ch4off;. the inner field is arranged in circles, each circle having patches of one motif placed side by side.

Patterns are laid in the same way as the shape of the faras¢, with a large motif or two placed at the centre. The layout for covers for horses consists of a series of concentric strips in the portion which covers the neck, each strip having patches of one motif, while the portions which fall on either side of the body are plain, having border all round with or without a motif at the centre of the plain field. Stitches: The stitches mainly adopted in applique work fall under six categories namely (I) Z7¢k/.I.ct, (2) /¢rapa, (3) g¢#ffez., (4) chz.kana (chain), (5) button-hole and (6) ruching.

The chz.ka#cr stitch (Figs. 36, 36a, 36b) which is also called chain stitch is popular in applique work. It is an embroidery stitch built up by looping of threads and is used in binding the edges of the applique patch without turning, as well as for making textural and ornamental effects on motifs.

Maximum width across: 93 cms. Top to bottom working length: 90 cms.-93 cms. The farcrs is in the shape of a heart. The central layout is composed of two motifs of elephant in yellow popliii cloth facing each other. Above the elephants is the motif of rafew in red poplin cloth.

Around the above composition are two rows of ka#gc{/a, one yellow and one white, covering only up to the legs of the elephants on either side from the top, the k¢#g#/4!s projecting inwards and then one row of single m¢//z. /#z.rana/ motifs set on the base cloth in a space 5 cms. wide, also covering up to the legs of the elephants from the top. This is followed by a plain 1.4 cms.

r¢ras¢ (banner cloth) Pipli, 1973

Maximum width across : 93 cms. Top to bottom working length: 90 cms.-93 cms.

The f¢r4rm is in the shape of a heart. The central layout is a pair of dancing peacock motifs placed face to face, and the raised tails joining at the top and so also the hoods on the head. The patches are stitched to the base cloth at the edges and decorations of face, eyes, wings and tail of the peacocks are made in chain stitch, with white 3-ply sewing thread. The dancing posture of the two motifs together conform to the shape of the farasa, and permits easy layout of the rows around it also in the shape of the /¢r¢sa.

There are seven rows of applique work around the central motif, one around the other, till the edge of the /¢r¢s is reached. The rows are as given below:
