Our last challenge for the letter strings! #80

Yes, we made it thru the alphabet!!! This is the last letter and last for the year! Taking the last 2 weeks off for family and recoup!!! Your string for this week, if you choose to do it, is the letter "Z". I know there has only been 2-3 people on these challenges, so maybe after the first of the year, more will come and play with us! Until then, Happy Holidays, that takes in just about all of you!

Tangle On,

Cheryl
