The final baby outfit is done. I do hope its suitable for either gender. I think it came out looking a little boyish, but perhaps I am just paying too much attention to gender stereotypes.
The silk linen trousers are also done. I don't think I should have used the interfacing to stabilise the fabric. Its made the trousers hang a bit funny. I think this pattern will look a whole lot better next time around, when I make them in something with a better hand and drape but the fabric was perfectly good for making a wearable first run and I will wear these a few times to be sure I like the fit before I make the pattern up again. Overall though, I am really pleased that comparing the pattern to my master pattern seems to have worked. I only had to tweak the side seams in a little, and I think that might have been partly due to the fabric having an odd drape, and partly due to my personal preference on leg width.
