Good-quality solid pastel/neutral crib sheets

[rosaphile]

I had originally registered for the Koala Baby sheets at BRU, but I gather they are not high-quality and tend to shrink so I'm looking for alternatives. I'd love to find some good-quality (non-shrinking, elastic all around) sheets in solid pastel or neutral colors. Any recommendations? Any thoughts on cotton percale vs. jersey knit? (I don't like flannel.)

I've looked at the Land's End and Company Kids websites and can't seem to find just what I'm looking for.

We have some Carter's sheets that work just fine. Also, our latest love is the sheet from www.fleecebaby.com, which is terrific. Another site to try is www.babybedding.com , whichh apparently has good stuff.

Thanks, I'll check out those sites!

In the meantime, I actually did find some good options at www.companykids.com. There are also some choices at www.potterybarnkids.com but they're pretty pricey.

The Company Store is having their annual white sale, so now is the time to shop their store. I like the quality of their sheets for our bed and look forward to the same quality in their crib sheets. They have lots of solid and gingham pastels from which to choose, so that might solve your problem. Good luck.

We have pottery barn kids sheets and LOVE them... they look brand new after 19 months and wash well! We've never had a problem with DS being able to pull them up or anything... they fit nice and tight! They get softer and softer with each wash as well! Good Luck!

I just bought Land's End crib sheets and they are really wonderful! Here is the link to the sheets, and they have pastels and neutrals like you wanted. http://www.landsend.com/ppl.cgi?styleNum=78442A80::&mode=GRAPHIC&refer=@2Fcd@2Ffp@2Fprod@2F0@2C1467@2C1@5F2@5F474@5 F3017@5F10102@5F9711@5F5@3Aview@3D@2D1@2C00@2Ehtml&sid=0449055625985107060 The sheets are jersey knit (like a high quality t-shirt) and with elastic all around. The bed skirt is the same. I ordered the heritage blue color and it is very true to the color shown on the screen. Hope that helps! Here's a picture of the light blue.
