I'm Emma, 27, from near Middlesbrough in sunny Cleveland

looking forward to meeting new pals. I've been stitching since I was about ten and fancy trying my hand at designing my own pics soon.
I love cross stitch, films, music and my little cat Pebbles

Merrywether, where in Illinois? I originally come from St. Louis, Mo which is of course just over the river.

Hello Pebble's it so good that you have found us I hope we can encourage you to stick around and enjoy this place as much as the rest of us regulars do. So many just pop in and say hi and then they are gone again. We realy like them to stick around and help us grow.

The first thing I thought when I saw your name was the old joke.... All the kids late to school and the teacher asking why. They all say they were just throwing pebbles in the river. Then they all sit down and in walks a little girl dripping wet and the teacher asks her who she is and why she is wet and she says I'm Pebble's. HEE HEE HEE

merrywether- when we moved from New Jersey to Wyoming we had to travel across all those states and in Peoria my husband and I stopped to get gas and we lost each other for about 2 hours. Back before cell phones were so popular all we had were CB radio's and the range was very limited. What a mess that turned out to be.
