DQ March'13 Challenge - Winner

The winner of the DQ March'13 Challenge is the lovely DQ Manju ! She has beautifully captured the essence of Pipli art in her beautiful entry.

"The Pipli inspired wall hanging is 26” by 22” in size. It is a Jaggannath ji image with a border of Pipli triangle applique …with a twist.

Usually the Pipli triangles are a layer upon layer of individual colours; I have mixed it up a little bit to give my own interpretation.

The area around the image is covered with fmq.

Usually the Pipli art form uses rick rack around the images for applique, but since I did not find any here in the width and colour that I wanted, I used the gold lace instead. " ...Manju.
