Hi All,

I once heard that one can purchase “templates package” for illustrator, meaning a CD or CD’s with basic illustrator sketches, according to your demands.
I, for example, work in the fashion industry and could purchase basic sketches of shirts, dressed etc. on which I could work and make changes.
Can anyone confirm such a product exists? And if so - where and how can I purchase it.

Thanks.
Tamara

Have you tried RD Franks or Mode Information (do a Google), I’m dure they sell this type of thing.

I’m certain I’ve seen a book in RD Franks called clothing design in Illustrator or something like that, a tutorial book with a cd rom.

Hi Bespoke,

I have sent you a private message with my e-mail address so you could send me the stitches.
Did you receive it?

Thanks
