Jacket Sewing Pattern

How do I learn to make sewing patterns?
I want to sew a few garments but,I want it to be completely from scratch that means I want to make the pattern as well.How would you learn to make patterns though?
I know the basic parts of different items like a shirt or jacket,dress,but I want to be able to make the pattern myself.Suggestions?
I’d probably start you with Don McCunn’s How to Make Sewing Patterns, then send you on to more complete professional books when you’d worked through that. Or the beginning fashion school textbook, Patternmaking Made Easy, which also teaches technical balances — most texts do not.
Or I’d start you with draping, my first love — good textbook is Connie Crawford’s Art of Fashion Draping.
And yes, if you can find a patternmaking or draping class locally, take it! They’re very rare!
