Matilda, a very small cloth and clay doll

Matilda was teased by her so called friends because of her hair, which is indeed a bit strange. But her mother made a necklace for her to protect her aigaist harm. She wears it every day and it gives her
strength.
One day she hopes to be as strong as Matilda of Tuscany, a warrior-lady of the middle-ages.
Matilda is a small cloth and clay doll, I altered her a bit by fading the watercolors. She is finished with matt varnisch. Sometimes we are feeling small and we want to be a warrior.Only the great warriors have compassion and know their own fragility.

Well definitely the chickens lay less eggs... I have a heater and light in their coop...
We have raccoon's, skunks and possums and they all eat chickens! So we have to have a really strong fortress! : )
