I'm making a matching American Girl Doll sweater set for Brianna, the daughter of my oldest friend Cathy. (Liana is Liana Catherine; Brianna is Brianna Jacqueline). So far, I'm almost finished with the doll sweater, I just need to do the neckline and buttonhole parts. It's my first sweater, so I'm glad I got to practice on the doll sweater first, before I began work on the sweater for Brianna. This is the first time I've done precise seaming (my prior experience with seaming was on pieces that were so bulky and fluffy that if I was off a stitch or so, it wouldn't be noticed).
Here's a picture of the sweater, sewn and ready for the finishing touches:

I'm kind of proud of myself, it's looking pretty good. The sweater for Brianna is going to take a long time. It's made in sport-weight yarn, so I'll be working on it for a while. I guess if I'm going to be stuck in bed with a major pain flare, I might as well do something useful.
