If you know, you know. A jelly roll — 40 strips of coordinated fabric, 2.5 inches wide, rolled up like the most beautiful thing you've ever seen in a quilt shop — is pure possibility in your hands. Mary Kay Lambert turned that possibility into art.
The Jelly Roll mug is for the quilter who lights up at the words "Moda Fabrics," who has participated in at least one jelly roll race, and who understands that a perfectly coordinated precut bundle is basically a love language. Start your morning with this mug and you're already ahead.
Available in 11 oz, 15 oz, and 20 oz. Microwave and dishwasher safe. Pairs beautifully with a cinnamon roll — just ask MaryKay. 😄
Cover Art by Mary Kay Lambert & the Kate Shu Collective
Mary Kay Lambert is a Resident Artist with the Kate Shu Collective whose art lives at the intersection of fabric, color, and story. A lifelong quilter rooted in the heartland of Iowa, Mary Kay approaches every piece the way she approaches a quilt — with intention, patience, and an eye for how individual pieces can come together into something greater than themselves. Her Quilted collection translates the warmth and craft of the quilting world into wearable and collectible art, celebrating the community of makers who know that every great thing begins with a single stitch.
Mary Kay Lambert was born in 1952 in a small Iowa county hospital, the daughter of Anna Jeanette Miller and Ralph Waldo Miller — owners of the only grocery store and café in Allendale, Missouri. Growing up at the intersection of hospitality, hard work, and homemade everything, Mary Kay absorbed the spirit of entrepreneurship before she could reach the counter. Her mother, Jeanette, was the heart of that operation: head chef, table server, and a gifted hand-quilter whose needle moved as naturally as breathing.
With her mother's encouragement tucked like a quilt square in her back pocket, Mary Kay purchased her first Juki sewing machine and launched Kay's Quilting in 1987. What followed was a remarkable 25-year chapter as a vendor at Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri, where she and her Vietnam veteran husband, Keith, sold quilts, quilt-related crafts, and handmade home goods until they retired in 2015. Today, Mary Kay quilts more than 300 quilts a year on her Gammill machine — and has meticulously documented every single one of her 12,350+ quilts. Each one, a stitch in the story of her life.
Kay's Quilting — and now her Monarch Shoppe collection — is dedicated to her beloved mother, who passed in 1989. The quilt in Mary Kay's artist portrait? Made by Jeanette Miller when she was in the eighth grade. Some legacies are sewn in fabric.
"One stitch at a time gets it done." — Mary Kay Lambert
