Tailoring needs only cloth, which drops from humanoid enemies everywhere, plus thread and dyes from trade vendors. This road turns your cloth into bolts first and spends them on the patterns that pay the most points.
The last 66 points use patterns from Moonglade, Mount Hyjal, Felwood and Silithus. Two of them need reputation, and the step says which.
Good to know
Make your own bolts from cloth. Above 234: Darnall (Moonglade), Pexmit (Mount Hyjal), Meilosh (Felwood, Timbermaw Hold) and Mishta (Silithus, Cenarion Circle).
Expert Tailoring (skill 125): Georgio Bolero (Alliance, Stormwind) / Josef Gregorian (Horde, Undercity).
Orange always gives a point, yellow usually does, green only now and then. The counts include spares for the yellow and green crafts.

Make 54 to go from 1 to 43. It is orange until 25, yellow until 37 and green after that. Green gives a point only now and then, so the count has spares for the end of the stretch. You know the recipe from the start.
