The Peony dress is a great beginner pattern.
Colette does a great job of walking you through each step. I highly suggest you make a muslin top to make dart or length adjustments before making the dress. Deadlines or Goal Dates are on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. Please do not feel like you have to make that goal!! Go at the pace you need to and post pics as you go.
In the facebook group Sew Happy Charleston there is a photo album that you can post pics of your steps along the way.

Tips and Info:
Trace your pattern onto tracing paper or freezer paper if you want to make multiple sizes.
I highly suggest making the bodice out of muslin first. I included it in the timeline. Colette's pattern website has tutorials on how to adjust for a small bust. You might need to lengthen the bodice if too short. A muslin draft will help you make these decisions.
