Founded in 1997 by Carol Veillon, Quiltmania, The Quilt Magazine, is a thriving little business nowadays, that requires all the hard working energy of a passionate and enthusiastic team to publish the magazine every other month in 3 languages (French, Dutch and English for two years now), but also an average of 7–8 quilt books every year.
In June 2008, we moved into our new premises with quilts on the walls and a beautiful Japanese garden in the Pays de Loire area, very close to Nantes.
Here is a little introduction to the team to help you put faces to your correspondents:
Isabelle Doyen: She takes care of your orders and subscriptions and prepares packages to be sent out. She also attends many shows because she’s downright polyglot (Italian, Spanish, English and may be others, we haven’t tapped into the whole resource yet!)
Lionel Pierret: The latest addition to the crew, the second male of the team.
Elodie Beillevert: She designs, builds and illustrates from her computer and with talent your favourite magazine and half of our books.
Sébastien Toffol: Since 2006, he has been helping Elodie with the graphic designing of our books. He’s also in charge of our special issues.
Christelle Lévêque: She became a member of the team when our office was still in a cabin. After enduring freezing winters and scorching summers, she’s now as cosy as a princess in her palace to work with our valued advertisers, to do our PR and organise our participation in shows (among other things…).
Caroline Couturier: Originally appointed as an assistant producer, it turns out that she has just a little more to do than that! She works with our suppliers and designers, oversees the reception and shipping of quilts, attends to classifieds in the magazine or on the website as well as internet matters…
Béatrice Airaud: She joined us very recently to lighten the burden of Renée Ferré who has the tremendous task of writing project instructions for the magazine and special issues. Special peculiarity: she’s very talented quilt-wise, which means lots of projects for you…
Guy Yoyotte-Husson: Our artist photographer who has been shooting photos for our magazines and special issues in a very talented way since issue n°2. Moreover, he’s a true friend, someone we can really rely on.
Our translators from all over the world!
Sabine Poen, Dini Bouwers and Marion Lenting for the Dutch edition
Elisabeth Fuchs, Dawn Willer and Margaret Hamilton for the English edition
Sandrine Léné, Makiko Morange and Marie-Claude Tsuruya for our Japanese books
And the technical committee: Renée Ferré, Michèle Beugnon, Michèle Mahaud, Jacqueline Coiffard and Georgette Cloître.
Let us not forget Nico, our favourite computer expert and irreplaceable webmaster.
And yours truly, Carol Veillon, founder, multitasking editor, more enthusiastic and passionate than ever!
