It´s quite overwhelming when we stop to recognize our kids growth thru the sizes we sew for them. I remember choosing a shy size 3 for this little girl when I started and now we´re up on 5 going on 6 sometimes.
These are my tester versions for the newly released Trophy jacket and joggers from Cali Faye Collection.

Well, trophy for me please because the fabric I used for the coat was a plain cotton linen blend which I quilted with a light batting. Because of that, I went up one size but I should have gone two since it´s a bit tight around the armholes.

The jacket is lined, except for the sleeves where you can have a go at a Hong Kong finish. Also the sleeves hem is finished with some bias facing, for which I used a bit of this pretty Petit Pan bias tape my friend Rita gave me.
The joggers are a straight size 5 with no alterations, which means they´re long on my 101 model because the original design for these is actually for cropped pants. I used a stretchy french terry from my local shop and she feels super comfy in them. It has in seam pockets and pleats both on front and back and a waist size band with buttonholes to thread a drawstring of the same fabric or a cord, like I used here.

Underneath there´s a Rowan Tee just like mummy, ha! If the Linden is my TNT for sweatshirts, then the Rowan is surely the equivalent in kids size.
