these pictures just dwart this space - I'm not a very talented photog..... here's the other side, with virtually no plants yet, but I did beef up the slope with some tall heavy edgers in places, when putting in a larger plant or tree - it's much easier to dig the hole and should shore up the soil. I've planted a fair amount of ground cover (which are still small) to help hold things together, too.

I'll take another look at your pictures, but it seems like you're headed in the right direction. We just don't get much rain here, so I didn't bother with the landscape fabric.... altho back in Oregon definitely I used that - but the rain there is torrential.
