Kidsline Crib Bedding Sets - Zanzibar Baby Crib Bedding (2)
The quilt of Zanzibar baby crib bedding is a genuine patchwork, in which the individual patches on the quilt are independent of each other. However, the stitching that was added after the fabric shell of the quilt was stuffed wanders frequently and far from the patchwork borders, giving a somewhat sloppy appearance. Fortunately, the details of the quilt and the wide variety of fabrics and textures used tends to make this stitching problem less noticeable.
The details used in Zanzibar baby crib bedding go beyond the quilt. The bumper has the same appliquéd and embroidered animals, as do the dust ruffle, valance, diaper stacker, and hamper. The bumper of Zanzibar baby crib bedding is 10.5” tall with top and bottom ties. One minor shortcoming for the bumper is the fact that it is one continuous piece, which makes washing it more of a chore.
The dust ruffle of Zanzibar baby crib bedding has an approximate 10” drop to finish off the look of the set. The diaper stacker measures 26” by 12” and can hold up to two dozen diapers. The valance of Zanzibar baby crib bedding measures 14” by 88” and is in a rod style. The fitted sheet is made using printed fabrics, with the pattern being printed onto a solid color.
While I was a little disappointed to see the printed fabric being used in Zanzibar baby crib bedding, as it is of a lesser quality than that of a woven fabric, I think that the sheet blends in with the pattern so well, it can be overlooked. I would caution you to be aware of potential color fade in the sheet from multiple washings. However, additional fitted sheets are available that match the Zanzibar pattern as well as assorted solid color sheets.
Unfortunately for Canadian consumers purchasing nursery bedding from a United States online retailer, the Zanzibar baby crib bedding collection is manufactured in China. Customers in Canada would be required to pay import duties of as much as 18% of the stated prices.
Given the popularity of the Jungle theme for nursery bedding, it is impractical to list all of the alternatives to Zanzibar baby crib bedding that are available. Almost every manufacturer makes at least one. See Jungle Nursery Bedding for many examples. The possibilities in this theme seem almost endless.
