Farm, don't buy.
Unless by some miracle you can find cloth or other components on sale for below vendor price, do your own farming.

Avoid recipes that use items you can't farm yourself.
For example, if you aren't an herbalist (and don't have one in your stable of alts), don't use recipes that need herbs. You'll end up paying a lot more for them on the AH. (There are a couple exceptions to this with two high-profit items where you will need components from Skinning. See if you can work out a deal; it's worth it in this case)

Avoid recipes that use items crafted by other professions.
Profession-created items include Alchemy components such as potions or Ghost Dye, Iron Buckles from Blacksmithing. It's highly likely you'd pay far more for these items than the end product is worth. Even in cases where you can make these on other characters or can get a deal from a friend, these are almost always money losers.

Never using dyes higher than Lejía, Tinte azul, and Tinte rojo.
As it turns out, higher level dyes are nearly always used in the most expensive (money-losing) recipes.

Never make shirts or other cosmetic items for skill.
They are the #1 money losers of any single category. Out of the 34 cosmetic items, 25 had a rate of return of 50% or less and 15 rated at 25% or less. Because of the dyes, they are more expensive to make, and they sell for a pittance at vendors. They also don't auction well on less developed servers because they are 100% cosmetic. Players still struggling to pay for skills every two levels aren't spending hard earned cash on shirts and dresses.

If you're really short on cash, you don't even need to learn all the tailoring recipes right away.
Follow this method and you'll only need to pick the 11-12 trainer recipes required to skill up, as well as 2-3 vendor-purchased recipes.

Understand what items generally lose more or less money than others. You can figure this out by adding up the prices of the raw materials, and then determine what they sell for, either to the vendor or to the Auction House. Selling below Vendor Cost is only part of your problem; don't sell below Opportunity Cost.

Levels and Recipes1-50: Descarga de paño de lino - about 90 bolts

Each = 2 Paño de lino. Opportunity Cost: . Sell to Vendor: . Score: 154%

Needed: 180 Paño de lino

This is actually more than you will use -- you only need 75 -- but this recipe is stubborn about giving up its last points. If you're ever in a position where you need to vendor linen, always always ALWAYS combine it into bolts before selling. Feel free to stop any time after 75.

50-75: Bolsa de lino - 25 bags

Each = 3 Descarga de paño de lino + 3 Coarse Thread. Opportunity Cost: . Sell to Vendor: . Score: 133%.

Needed: 75 Descarga de paño de lino, 75 Hilo burdo

75-107: Descarga de paño de lana - 50 bolts (will need 100 bolts to complete all projects)

Each = 3 Paño de lana. Opportunity Cost: . Sell to Vendor: . Score: 101%.

Needed: 150 Paño de lana

107-115: Bolsa de lana - 12 bags

Each = 3 Descarga de paño de lana, 1 Fine Thread. Opportunity Cost: . Sell to Vendor: . Score: 75%.

Needed: 36 Descarga de paño de lana, 12 Hilo refinado

This is the first item where you'll lose some money if you choose to vendor the bags. However, you should be able to sell these at more than on the Auction House; just be sure to account for AH fees and deposits when you do.

115-125: Bolsa de lana roja, Part 1 - 10 bags

Each = 4 Descarga de paño de lana + 1 Tinte rojo + 1 Hilo refinado. Opportunity cost: . Sell to Vendor: . Score: 127%.

Needed: 40 Descarga de paño de lana, 10 Tinte rojo, 10 Hilo refinado

Patrón: bolsa de lana roja is sold by several vendors, so you can easily acquire a copy. The pattern costs . It's a recipe that the vendor will not always have in stock, so it may take a couple tries to get it. It's very much worth the effort, since this recipe has one of the higher rates of return, even if you are forced to vendor some of your bags. You will use this again after greying out Bolts of Silk.

125-145: Descarga de paño de seda - 40 bolts (will need 150 bolts to complete all projects)

Each = 4 Paño de seda. Opportunity cost: . Sell to Vendor: . Score: 100%.

Needed: 160 Paño de seda. (Will need 600 total for 150 Descarga de paño de seda to complete all projects)

145-150: Bolsa de lana roja, Part 2 - 8 Bags

Needed: 24 Descarga de paño de lana, 8 Tinte rojo, 8 Hilo refinado

150-175 Talega de seda pequeña - 25 bags (see below for Non-Leather Alternate Path)

Each = 3 Descarga de paño de seda , 3 Hilo refinado, 2 Cuero pesado. Opportunity cost: . Sell to Vendor: . Score: 90%.

Needed: 75 Descarga de paño de seda , 75 Hilo refinado, 50 Cuero pesado

This is one of two recipes that breaks the no-farming rule, but in this case, it's likely you'll be able to sell Small Silk Packs on the Auction House for more than the opportunity cost. Be sure to calculate in the additional opportunity cost of Medium Leather if you're forced to buy it on the Auction House (it only accounts for a total in the original OC calculation).

(Non-Leather Alternate Path Instead of Small Silk Pack)

150-175 Jubón de seda azur (25 vests)

Each = 5 Descarga de paño de seda , 4 Tinte azul. Opportunity cost: . Sell to Vendor: . Score: 59%.
Needed: 125 Descarga de paño de seda , 100 Tinte azul
If you don't want to deal with acquiring Cuero pesado, you can use this as an alternate route between 150-175. Believe it or not, this is the least money-losing item that requires no farmed ingredients in this level range. It does use considerably more silk. Not a great alternative, but it does avoid the leather.

175-185 Descarga de paño mágico - 30 bolts (will need 160 bolts to complete all projects)

Each = 5 Tela de paño mágico. Opportunity cost: . Sell to vendor: . Score: 100%.

Needed: 150 Tela de paño mágico

185-205 Capa de seda azur - 25 Cloaks

Each: 3 Descarga de paño de seda + 2 . Sell to vendor: . Score: 107%.

Needed: 75 Descarga de paño de seda, 50 Hilo refinado, 50 Tinte azul

Patrón: capa de seda azur is sold by two vendors: Brienna Brillastrella in Feralas and Jun'ha in Arathi Highlands. The recipe costs , but you'll make that up in fewer than 10 combines, even if you can't sell even one of these on the Auction House for above the OC.

205-225 Leotardos de paño mágico negro - 20 Pants

Each = 2 Descarga de paño mágico, 3 Hilo de seda. Opportunity cost: . Sell to vendor: . Score: 121%.

Needed: 40 Descarga de paño mágico, 60 Hilo de seda

These pants are favorites of those wishing to make certain bold style statements, so these are popular Auction House offerings. Even if you have to vendor them, though, you won't lose above vendoring the components.

225-250 Bolsa de paño mágico - 30 Bags

Each = 4 Descarga de paño mágico, 2 Hilo de seda. Opportunity cost: . Sell to vendor: . Score: 42%.

Needed: 120 Descarga de paño mágico, 60 Hilo de seda

Bolsa de paño mágico is one of two bags that has a poor vendoring outcome. However, these are in high-enough demand that as long as you can sell for better than the OC, you'll do just fine for profit. There are also no other recipes in this level range that will get you through this same bridge which will do much better, so go with what you can easily sell on the Auction House.

250-260 Descarga de paño rúnico - 20 Bolts (will need either 225 or 270 bolts to complete all projects)

Each: 5 Paño rúnico. Opportunity cost: . Sell to vendor: . Score: 100%

Needed: 80 Paño rúnico

Descarga de paño rúnico has a very short skillup window. It won't take you many to finish the ten points, even as quickly as it turns green.

260-290 Bolsa de paño rúnico - 35 bags (see below for Non-Leather Alternate Path)

Each: 5 Descarga de paño rúnico, 2 Cuero basto, 1 Hilo rúnico. Opportunity cost: . Sell to vendor: . Score: 31%.

Needed: 150 Descarga de paño rúnico, 70 Cuero basto, 35 Hilo rúnico

Patrón: bolsa de paño rúnicois sold for from Qia in Winterspring

This actually isn't the most cost-effective method, but it's the most lucrative. It uses a lot more Runecloth (you'll use another 40 Runecloth getting to 300 for closing the gap between 290 and 300, for a total of 190 Runecloth), but the Runecloth Bags WILL sell. Just be sure you can sell them for above the OC if at all possible.

Non-Leather Alternate Path Instead of Runecloth Bag

260-285: Cinturón de paño rúnico - 30 Belts

Each: 3 Descarga de paño rúnico, Hilo rúnico. Opportunity cost: . Sell to vendor: . Score: 86%.
Needed: 90 Descarga de paño rúnico, 30 Hilo rúnico
This method doesn't require the Rugged Leather to make, so use this if you can't get Rugged Leather at a good enough price to justify making them for profit (the Rugged Leather counts for in Opportunity Cost).

285 or 290-300: Cinturón de paño rúnico - Up to 45 Belts

Each: 3 Descarga de paño rúnico, Hilo rúnico. Opportunity cost: . Sell to vendor: . Score: 86%.

Needed: Up to 145 Descarga de paño rúnico, 45Hilo rúnico

It's the last recipe you can get from a trainer; nearly all the recipes after this are rare drops and difficult to obtain.

It remains the highest rate of return for materials of any item after 255.

It is one of only a couple recipes that has no farmed materials (the other recipes are all Mooncloth recipes, which have their own challenges).
