I made this Quiet book for my 2 year old GD, Violet. It was only after getting the book that I realized just how much I would need to do! So, 60 hours later, a few trips to the store, and sanity checks, I finished this AM! NEVER AGAIN!!! The pattern is by Amanda Herring and called Piece & Quiet: A Children's Activity Book Pattern.
