The village of Pipili is well known for its appliqué work. Appliqué comes from the French word appliquer, meaning "to put on". There are two variants to this technique: appliqué, where a fabric shape is sewn over a base layer, and reverse applique, wherein two layers of fabric are laid down, and a shape is subsequently cut out from the upper layer, exposing the lower layer, before both are stitched together.
The village of Pipli, situated between Puri and Bhubaneswar, is famous for its commendable work. It is a product that has received Geographical Indication (GI) by the Government of India.

Applique design elements are individually hand-stitched felt. Nowadays its use is more in domestic, decorative, and festival products. Pipli items are mainly used during the rituals of the deities.
