Rosanna Lynne Welter’s roots are in traditional quilting, but she quickly transitioned to textile art once she began exploring the exciting processes and techniques that advanced the fiber arts movement. She has spent over twenty years exploring the fiber medium through various approaches and is currently engaged in exciting new paths with dimensional work and painting on fabric with dyes and inks. Her work is filled with naivety, dimension, whimsy, texture, and lots of thread.
Rosanna has exhibited locally, regionally, and nationally/internationally. Highlights include work showing at the Sonoran Desert Museum, Tucson, AZ; The Detroit Zoo; SOFA [now Intersect Chicago]; Oklahoma State University Museum of Art, Stillwater, OK; The Virginia Quilt Museum, Harrisonburg, VA; Louisianna State University Museum in Baton Rouge, and The Philadelphia Museum of Art, PA. Her work is in private collections and has been published in multiple books and catalogs. Her early works were exhibited at Quilt National, International Quilt Expo in Innsbruck Austria, and the Musée des Tissue in Lyon France. She is a past recipient of a Utah Arts Council/NEA Individual Artist Grant and in 2026 received a Utah Arts & Museums Career Advancement Grant.
Currently, Rosanna is a member of 4 Common Corners (an invitational fiber arts group composed of artists living in Colorado, Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico) and Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA) where she is a Juried Artist. She is currently focused on her daily art practice at her in-home studio in West Valley City, Utah where she lives with her husband, a rescue doggie, and a rescue kitty.
