"First of all - the DVD is beautiful!! The music is fantastic, the graphics are really professional, and the whole layout is so professional and user friendly. Secondly - Sarah is ADORABLE!!! The explanations are so good, the camera shots are perfect, everything looks so easy. I can't believe the part where she takes a table full of wool fluff and scoops it into the doll head. It looks like magic. Sarah's voice is so charming, too. Her accent is fairly light to my ears - she's perfectly clear and completely understandable. The sound is so professional. I'm so impressed with this DVD! Already my daughter used the DVD to finish a doll she started a few months ago." (Customer in PA, USA)

Postage from Australia to the US is fast and reliable. But if you prefer to order locally here are some retailers who carry my DVD:
The DVD is NTSC version. Most DVD players in PAL regions (Europe and Australia) are NTSC compatible. If you are from a PAL region please make sure your DVD player is NTSC compatible before ordering as no refunds can be made after purchase.

Francisca Supple (Tuesday, 05 January 2010) Rating: Cisca rnI love this DVD. I've been interested in Waldorf dolls for some time but living in the country and with 3 young children I didn't have time to go to a class. Sarah has provided the answer in her detailed DVD. The attention to detail is fantastic!The best thing IS the fact that just before each step of making the doll I re-watch the DVD to make sure I'm doing it right! Thank you Sarah for allowing me to fulfill a dream - to make my daughter a doll! I can highly recommend it!
Linda Utz (Monday, 27 October 2008) Rating: Excellant DVD! Sarah shows each step in close-ups so we can follow along until our doll is completed. The dvd is high quality with Great attention to detail and Great sound quality. I ordered mine straight from Sarah and it came very quickly. I highly recommend her DVD. Sarah responds quickly to her emails and is very sweet to offer help and assistance. You will enjoy this dvd and enjoy watching Sarah create her dolls. Much better than a workshop, because I can stop the dvd, rewind it, ets as needed with each step. 5 Stars *****
