Gifts for me!

I received some gifts today from a very talented lady in Russia called Masha. She made the beautiful doily and there was some squares of fabric and a large chocolate coin [she was hoping it would get here for Christmas]. I can crochet a little, the simple squares, but I've not been very successful at following a pattern. Masha also does embroidery and patchwork. Patchwork is another thing I'm not too good at either, I don't take enough care I think, but I will have to think of something nice to make with the squares. 

The package has some interesting stamps on it too and I will use them for something or other.
