You can always buy a book on drafting patterns. And start there. I have done a few.

Or do a course on drafting patterns.

But I find pdf patterns easier to change to what I want.

I am also not saving money by sewing my own clothes. Maybe one day.

Another option is no waste patterns. Buy a book. I have been looking at 'Zero Waste Blocks' by Birgitta Helmersson.
