Beginner sewing patterns teach the most foundational sewing techniques. These patterns focus on the basics like sewing and finishing straight and curved seams, hemming, and simple shaping methods such as darts and gathers. In addition, beginner patterns omit closures, making them perfect if you are new to sewing or are looking for a quick and easy make.
Advanced Beginner sewing patterns expand on the skills learned at the beginner level, helping you to build confidence and range as a sewer. You'll find simple knitwear projects, bias tape finishing techniques, and begin to explore closures at this skill level.
Intermediate level sewing patterns focus on more precision sewing. In this skill level, you'll learn specialty closures. Intermediate patterns also introduce the skills needed for simple lingerie and athletic wear projects.
Advanced sewing patterns require great precision and time investment. You'll find tailored pieces in this category with elevated details like bound buttonholes and welt pockets.

The Bryn dress is one part shift dress, one part pinafore. The sleeveless shift style is fully lined and complemented by a scoop neckline and French darts. The dress closes with an invisible zip for a nice fit at the bust and waist and has fish-eye darts in the back for shaping.
Wear it alone, layer with a jacket or cardigan, or style it layered over your favorite button-up or turtleneck. Sew it in medium-weight woven fabrics, such as denim, twill, canvas, suiting, corduroy, and faux suede.
