Taking pics for my clothing website

I am a seamstress and not much of a photographer. I have been trying to take pictures of my clothing for my website as an alternative to expensive models. I have an older digital camera. I had the camera set to automatic. I set the white balance using the automatic feature. I had it next to my sliding glass door for a natural light source. I had four 'daylight' light bulbs in shop lamps pointed at it. The overhead chandelier was also on. The first few pictures I took still came out dark, and so then I turned the flash from my camera on. This is the best I could come up with. Still not happy with it as it looks too "warm" and doesn't show the colors properly. I need serious help.
