How do I make brown sauce from scratch out of a simple turkey breast? My mom always made it but I can't ask her because she died half a year ago.

That's no excuse.
Are you cooking the turkey in an oven? If so, get a frying pan on medium heat, melt some butter, add flour, sautee butter-flour mix until golden brown. Add turkey drippings and/or broth. If you're doing potatoes with the turkey, some of the potato water would be beneficial as well. Reduce over medium-high heat until thickened, stirring consistently.

thanks for your answer. I'm cooking the turkey breasts in a pan but your answer will come in handy sooner or later.

You can't make gravy from just turkey breast. The best you could do is make a roux and add turkey/chicken stock, but even that's going to taste bland.
The proper way to do it is to get a big roasting pan filled with vegetables such as carrots, onions, celery and garlic, and then to roast an entire turkey on top of those vegetables in an oven.
After the turkey is cooked, you'll have loads of pan drippings + caramelized vegetables. You make the gravy directly in the roasting pan. Remove the turkey, heat up the pan over the stove, add some flour and whisk, then slowly add in turkey stock (you can also add some wine if you want, but do that first to cook the alcohol off)
Keep whisking and making sure to scrape any burnt bits from the bottom of the pan, these will add a ton of flavor. Also make sure to break up/mash the vegetables (don't worry if the gravy is lumpy at this point).
Once the gravy is as thick as you'd like, pass it through a sieve into a large jug/bowl, or another pan if you want to be able to heat it up later.

Add lots of wheat to the jus (that's French for meat juice) and whisk.
Add some butter and whisk again.
Reduce and let rest for about 10 mins.
Add water if necessary
