Thanks for the get well wishes, I'm already feeling better and I've had plenty of time to knit in bed. I'm a bit mad at that seam on the bottom. It's been bothering me ever since I completed it. It has an S shape,which I believe is due to the lace around it. I blocked that lace stripe before seaming, so blocking will not straighten the seam. It is a simple three needle bindoff and I'm starting to think that maybe a regular backstitch seam would have worked better. It's too late for that, since I am about to begin the shoulder shaping.
By the way, see that waist shaping? That's my own doing, because the pattern called for a straight tee. It's also much shorter than what the pattern calls for because I am a short person. Actually, I'm not that short, but I have a short torso due to scoliosis. Hey, that S shaped seam matches my scoliosis!

Scoliosis,hmm,tell me about it i always say i'm an under achiever in the height department.....i stopped growing when i reached 4ft 11 3/4 inches (and that 3/4 inch is vital!!) when i was about 12 years old....we all have it .... it's a family thing and ducks disease too :)......but hey! we can't have everything
