If you open your inventory you'll see a tab with a pencil on it. Click that and it will open your patterns, you can click on any of those and choose "edit". That will let you make your own, basic patterns.
If you want to make pro designs, you'll need to talk to Mable. She'll give you the option to make designs that you can use to make long sleeve shirts, dresses, etc.
To change your flag, you'll need to talk to Isabelle at her desk. She'll give you the option to change your town flag, and you use one of your patterns.
