Crown Crafts is a well-known and respected crib bedding manufacturer, offering merchandise under several different labels, such as Opbaby!, NoJo, Precious Moments, and Disney Baby. The Back in Time collection, produced under the NoJo label, is a visually stimulating set featuring dinosaurs. Generally retailing for between $140 and $175, this is a great price for the amount of high quality fabrics used in Back in Time.

Back in Time comes as a four-piece crib set with a bumper, dust ruffle, fitted sheet, and quilt. The collection is made from a 65/35 poly/cotton blend. The fitted sheet is available for purchase separately. Matching accessories are available. One notable exception to the industry standard accessories available is a hamper. All of the pieces are machine washable.

The centerpiece of a crib bedding collection is the quilt. The quilt is made using a genuine patchwork design, in which each individual patch is sewn together to create the patches (a sign of higher quality craftsmanship). However, the patches are not "traditionally" put together. There are various sized rectangles in patterned designs used as a backdrop for the embroidered dinosaurs roaming the quilt. The quilt is thicker than most bedding quilts I have seen, which could be a good or a bad thing depending on your tastes. Each of the dinosaurs is made from textured fabrics like velour or terry for a soft feel.

I was pleased to see that Crown Crafts decided to use higher quality woven fabrics throughout this crib set, as opposed to printed fabrics. Woven fabrics begin with individual colored threads that are woven together to create a pattern. Woven fabrics, as compared to fabrics that have a pattern simply printed on the surface of a solid-colored fabric, are much more durable, color-fast, and vibrant.

The bumper is 8.5" tall with ties on both the top and bottom of the bumper. A minor detail is the bumper is one continual piece, which in some cases could be easier than a multiple pieced bumper, however, it makes washing that much harder. The inward facing bumper is decorated with the same dinosaurs from the quilt to entertain your baby. The outside of the bumper features alternating patterns from the quilt. The dust ruffle has a 12" drop to finish the look of your nursery. The premium quality woven gingham fitted sheet matches the back of the bumper.

Unfortunately, for Canadian consumers purchasing from a United States online retailer, the Back in Time 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.
