Bright and cheerful
May 8, 2013
I haven't washed and used the sheets yet, but it'll be a couple months before I do so I thought I'd review in the meantime. These sheets are so bright, colorful and cheerful. I wish I hadn't bought any other sheets yet and could just get more of these. If you are a fan of bright colors for a baby's room, these are a great choice, and I think they will work great for a boy or a girl (I'm going to have one of each and I plan to use these for both of them). Also, since they have so many different colors and shades in them, they'll coordinate with a lot of other stuff, and not just the "hungry caterpillar" bedding set. (I wish they had a matching terry changing pad cover - I'd buy a few of those!)
I took off one star because the sheets don't seem that soft to me, but I'm hoping they'll soften up after washing.

Big hit at the baby shower
October 1, 2012
The darling crib sheets along with the book and some other caterpillar themed things was a big hit at my daughter's baby shower. Baby comes soon! The sheets are perfect in the green themed nursery.

I absolutely love this bedding! The picture does not do it justice...the colors are really vibrant and look great. There were no snags or anything in the fabric or hemming. I would definitely recommend this to anyone!

Happy with bedding, NOT with shipping
February 3, 2012
Our entire nursery is based on this bedding, and we are very happy with it. I cannot say the same for Pottery Barn Kids shipping, back order notification process, or handling of returns. My experience has been less than ideal, including inaccurate back order dates, lack of update when pushed back further and difficulty and slowness in processing returns. GREAT bedding, not sure it is worth the hassle, though.

Bright and cheerful nursery bedding
February 3, 2012
I bought these crib sheets for a gender neutral nursery as we are having twins..a boy and a girl. The bright colors look great against the white cribs. The nursery looks cheerful and inviting. The decor is something the kids can definitely grow into and have throughout their childhood. I would definitely recommend this bedding!

Standard pillowcase on toddler sheeting?
January 26, 2012
When Pottery Barn offers a toddler sized pillow, and "toddler" sheeting, you would expect for the pillowcase in the set to be toddler sized. Not in this set, which is odd because the MVP Sports and Ryder Train sets do have the toddler sized pillowcase.
Otherwise, the sheets are super soft with vibrant colors so still worth the money if you can live with the large pillowcase and possibly make your own out from the large one.

Standard size pillowcase, not toddler size pillowc
September 15, 2011
This is beautiful, HOWEVER, these toddler sheets come with a standard pillowcase. Toddler pillowcases should come with the purchase of the toddler sheets (ie. PB gingham toddler sheets come with a toddler pillowcase). Also, there is no way to purchase a toddler pillowcase separately so her sheets and pillowcase do not match.

We have both; the Very Hungry Caterpillar bedding for our unborn son, and the kid butterfly bedding for our 4 year old daughter. We also had them personalized with their names... BEAUTIFUL craftmanship! The room blends perfectly together and looks so cute!! I LOVE this collection and the quality is unbeatable! Sure to last a very long time!!! Very happy with this collection for both baby and older child!

Perfect for Hungry Caterpillar fans!
July 31, 2011
I am not a fan of anything with "characters" on it. Because of that I was hesitant about this. But when I saw it in person I fell in love. It is Pottery Barn quality and so classic. And I love the fact it is gender neutral and will grow with the child. It looks 100 times better in person then online! I also purchased the shower curtain which is also beautiful and plan to by the rest of the accessories to go along with it. You won't regret your purchase!
