arrrgh
So P got sick a week ago Saturday, I got sick a week ago today, W got it on Friday and R got it on Sunday. And tonight I was thinking we were all out of the woods, but two hours ago P threw up. He was in the swing hooked onto the swivel and had been spinning at fairly high speed for a few minutes and then had a coughing fit, so I hope it's just dizzy plus gag reflex triggered by coughing, because otherwise we're in for round two and... wah.
Also, my iron abruptly stopped getting hot today, but tonight I got a new iron that's even nicer than the old one (though sadly a bit heavier) and have thus managed to get the current quilt top down from 400 bits of fabric to 80, so yay! I also did the thinky bits on the queen sized one I'm making for our bed (pairing up frame and center fabrics for the subunits), but that one is still in 500 bits. Totals don't include borders and binding and all that stuff, just the main patchwork. Whee. Another one planned for mom is currently in 67 pieces. Yes, I am apparently going somewhat overboard with the quilting thing at the moment...
