The only thing I have made without a pattern was a Princess Leia costume (ages ago). DD had picked out a very complicated Buttrick pattern but I made her find a different one after I read the instructions and realized there's no way I could have it done in time. I go tomorrow to pick up a simpler Kwik Sew pattern. I used Kwik Sew patterns to make all their clothes when the girls were little. I hope the adult patterns have similar easy-to-follow instructions. Wish me luck.
