Vector graphics software for OS X?

Ok, so I want to design my own T-Shirts, but in order to get them printed I need vector graphics as "blueprint" for it. Is there a recommendable vector graphics application (besides Illustrator, which is... well, expensive) for OS X?

Thanks for any input

There's LineForm

I played around with it a little but since I own Illustrator I didn't find it very interesting.

Cenon
EasyDraw

Some of those are FREE, there are others so do a search for OSX Vector drawing programs

I use OmniGraffle for lots of this stuff and then export to PDF. That may well fit your needs. (You can get a free license to try it out and see.)
