    Hi Tara,

    Please check out this website;

    They take orders for other countries also. I just ordered one for myself.

    Thanks for suggesting a book.

    Hi Tara,

    Actually i just now received my order cancellation mail because this book is out of stock. I enquired at many other shops too. I believe its out of print. So sorry about it.

    Cheers,
    Sunitha

    Hi ! ,Friends, All your cutting problems will be solved If you buy the book "Zarapkar system of cutting" published by Gala publishers.It is really a very good book.It is Govt approved book on tailoring and cutting.When I bought it was just Rs.35/= .Recently I had seen this book in Sapna book shop in Bangalore.I read all the queries in this thread I thought this is the right book to suggest.When I was young I used to stitch a lot with the help of this book.Of course I had taken basic training in stitching and cutting. Happy stitching !

    I cannot post that book.It has 208 pages.I can give the address of the publisher. Gala publishers,30.Shriram Nagar,Alwarpet,Madras-600018 (Tel 453614).Please check the telephone number. It must have been changed.
