    Hi lakshmi,

    I don't remember the cost . This is with me for more than a year.

    I think it was Rs 200.

    hello vijikrishnangaru..we get kalamkari paintings in srikalahasti which is 40kms from tirupati...this place is very famouse for kalamkari works since ages..this year one great artist got padmasree award too..we can get many of them year..
    some artista are painting on sarees directly on order basis according to our choice and also at reasonable rates..or otherwise we can buy the pieces and can do patch work ..we have to cut the extra cloth and fix on cloth..we can also embellish it with kundans, stones..
    running bordes and seperate pieces in differene sizes also available...
    i cudn't get the meaning of annam design..
    .in cities u can get them in handicrafts exhibitions..may be lepakshi emporium also u can get..
