Thank you for all the nice comments! it’s a heavyweight (but light in feeling) stiffener inside of the skirt, which acts as a backing for the appliques, which makes them easier to satin stitch. A second layer is also put inside the skirt to keep it stiff.
It’s an Irish dancing dress.

Wow, you did an amasing job on this!What did you put inside the scirt to make it puffy and at the same time i see it is kind of stiff

This is very handsome work. The appliques must take a fair amount of time to cut out. Nehmah
