Jai Jagannath Applique Producer Company Limited

If you come down to Pipili Sasan in Pipili, you’ll find Jai Jagannath Applique Producer Company Limited. We are located at Plot Number 14761815, Khatiyan Number 429/115. Pipili is famous for applique work, and we are just one of the groups here doing it. We work with bright colors and small pieces of cloth to make patterns. It’s the kind of thing you see at festivals or in people's homes. Our setup is simple. We have a space where the artisans can sit and do their stitching. It’s not a modern office by any means. It’s more like a workshop where there’s always thread and scraps of fabric on the floor. We named the company after Lord Jagannath because that’s who we look up to in this part of the world. Each piece we make takes a lot of hours of sitting and sewing. We don't use big words to describe what we do. It’s just handiwork. Sometimes tourists stop by to see how it’s done, and we show them if we aren't too busy. We are just a group of people from Pipili trying to keep our traditional craft alive. It’s not about getting rich; it’s about having enough work for everyone. We take pride in what we do, even if we don't say it in a fancy way. It’s just our way of life here.
