Yellowstone Quilted Throw

Curl up with Yellowstone, the first established National Park in our history. The quilt covers the geological and geographical phenomenons across the 2.2 million-acre park. The mountain ranges are made with marbled cotton designed exclusively for Haptic Lab by Natalie Stopka, and the geysers, rivers, and lakes are embroidered and appliquéd in detail. Beautiful as a layer of warmth or hung in your home.

To do our part in protecting public lands for future generations, 10% of our sales will benefit the National Park Foundation, the official charity of the National Park System.

Place names embroidered on the quilt: Tower Fall, Grand Canyon, Mammoth Hot Springs, Hayden Valley, Fishing Bridge, Norris Geyser Basin, Old Faithful, Upper Geyser Basin, Shoshone Lake, Yellowstone Lake

WHY WE  LOVE  IT

Why Quilts?
Quilts are tactile objects that absorb and accumulate our love. They are generational objects, heirlooms passed down within families as a way to keep our stories alive and familiar. The act of quilting is an act of love - a quilt is a talisman that protects and comforts when we're at our most vulnerable - in our sleep. The texture and warmth of a quilt conjures memories of home, and for some commemorate life's big moments: birth, marriage, and coming of age.

Quilts are functional as bedding and as art, an unusual intersection for a household craft that has been predominantly seen as women's work. The value of a handmade quilt lies not just in the beauty of the piece, but in its sentimental value. These treasured keepsakes tell our stories, and a quilted map provides the scaffolding on which the story is held into focus: Haptic Lab quilts become a snapshot of a moment in time in a world that is rapidly changing.
