Sarah makes lots of the puppets and sets for the animations of Little Woolly Vision - the children's division of Woolly Vision, a multi-award winning, stop-motion animation company specializing in making animation with wool, fabric and felt. The aim is to put a new spin on nursery rhymes and to move away from the computer generated animation so often associated with children's songs online. Every nursery rhyme on their channel is animated using traditional stop-motion techniques and each puppet and set hand sewn with felt.
