The Quilt maker's Gift

True love has no color, religion, nationality, socio-economical background. True love has no place for selfishness, hatred, or ambitions… True love is the feeling you will get while watching the Christmas performance of our children, of St Loucas’ Special School, called “The Quilt maker’s Gift” written by the American author Jeff Brumbeau. It is a performance that has been prepared all the way through with love, joy, great effort and enthusiasm.

The joy of giving and the art of being happy are the main themes of our story, being realized through the talent and love of our own students, our own heroes. A generous quilt maker with magical fingers, makes the most beautiful quilts in the world, with colors and patterns that no human has ever seen before, soft and warm as if they are filled with angels’ feathers. She does not sell her quilts. Instead, she walks around in the streets in the cold winter nights and offers them to the poor and homeless people. On the other hand a greedy king who has all the treasures of the world in his palace, is looking for someone who will make him happy and throw away from his heart, even just for a while, his boredom, loneliness and misery.
