Easy - can reliably sew straight seams, simple curves and hems. can do gathers with some guidance. works in medium weight cotton and poly-blend fabrics.
Intermediate - can reliably sew even gathers. can set in a sleeve with some guidance. works in un-napped or non-directional fabrics.
I think you're right - I've seen it somewhere, I just don't remember which pattern house.
