I am writing to you from the 34th floor of my hotel on the Vegas strip, where I am attending the Photoshop World conference. I don't have a tripod, but I couldn't resist trying to capture the flashing madness of the Strip down below…and then play around in Photoshop with the results.

That is exactly what Creativity is about ….
PLAY.

If I thought about someone judging me while I was playing around with my photos, then I'd get intimidated and maybe just post a link to
some Vegas themed fabric.

Fortunately when I write my Creative Nudges, I try not to think about our big list of subscribers. Instead I think about the individual quilters and fiber artists I've met over the years, and I think…. "what a cool image to share with my fabric friends!"

On the flight over here today, I took several photos out the window, of the
colorful desert landscape. The gentleman next to me commented "what a great shot" and then as we began to chat, it turned out his wife across the aisle was a quilter, and they were on their way to the same conference!

Quilters are everywhere. We collect fabric, colors and friends. Aren't we lucky?

I am posting some photos from the flight on my photo page too. The abstract patterns are fascinating!
