I have a LW feral druid about to ding 75, currently level locked at 74, but I am about to unlock and level via PVP so I can continue LW and skinning progression.
I need to get the rare patterns from the Sunwell raid. What sort of aid should I take with me? Do I need a pair of 85s? a pair of 90s, a healer and a tank for certain? I do not know how difficult that raid is to complete for higher level characters.
Also, is it possible to group my druid, log to another toon and fight, then log back to the druid for drops? I have never tied this though I have had my logged off toons still in group 10-15 minutes after I logged over to another toon, even after all other characters left active login so that only my 2 characters remained in group. Has anybody tried this?

You can't hop back and forth between characters for the loot.
You can, however, just get one 90 to help you and blast through it. Most of it can be solo'd by a mildly competent level 90 toon, so you shouldn't have any issues unless they're really bad at everything they do.
Just get a buddy, or someone who wants some transmog pieces in there. Real easy!

Just to throw it out there, but you don't need the Sunwell pattern to continue leveling up your Leatherworking. So unless you want the recipes for sake of having them, it's much easier to just level from the trainer learned recipes.

I was actually thinking of making that toon a twink, keeping it under level 85 and gearing out from there.

One issue you may have is the insanely low drop rate of patterns in there. Havering cleared through mu'ru when it was current I don't think we saw more than 3 or 4 total patterns in there after months of raiding it. Same went for our "retro" level 85 runs for trasmorg gear.
Odds are you'll probably die a fair amount even with a level 90 with you due to the way the fights work. I will say though sun well was one of my all time favorite raids both gear and boss wise.
It could be a frustrating experience trying to get the patterns. But if you like a challenge more power to you !

TY Calest for your kind and honest advice. I just started running that toon through MC to rep there and get those patterns. I think I might wait on Sunwell a while.

They do percentage based damage and can still kill high level toons.
I went in there one night bored, scared me when my health dropped so low so quickly. Had no idea what was going on lol.
