PEDESCLEAUX
QUILT EXHIBIT AND PRESENTATION
Cecelia “Cely” Tapplette-Pedescleaux, a self-taught quilter born in the 7th Ward of New Orleans, grew up surrounded with women
seamstresses. Cely teaches quilting and the history of African American quilting to the public through Beecher Memorial United
Church of Christ Quilt Guild, New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Foundation, and the New Orleans and Jefferson School Districts,
among others. Her quilts have been on exhibit in many galleries, colleges, universities, festivals and quilts shows.
In 2001, Cely received the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority’s Artie Award for Visual Arts, an honorable merit award in the Satchmo
Art Show, and the National Conference of Artist Outstanding Artist Award in 2003. The U.S. Ambassador to Paris, France and the
French Patchwork Association sponsored nine of her quilts in a French exhibit, “A Patchwork of Cultures: Traveling Exhibit From
Louisiana to France” (2008-2009). These nine quilts were also included in an exhibit at the Daughters of the American Revolution
(DAR) Museum in Washington D.C. (August, 2010).
