VISIT the Moda Bake Shop to get Megan Pohlar-McGuire's pattern for her Tumbling Mug Rug. Thanks to my daughter, Katie Knecht, for making the one you see here - I keep it in my kitchen always ♥

I have been googling around the web to find some recipes appropriate to the occasion. I found this easy to do Jelly Roll Cake recipe at Food. com (I was thinking a rolled up cake would be hard to make).It is made from simple ingredients and not overly sweet. I was ALSO thinking my first go-round would be a practice run and I would likely end up with lopsided pile of jelly and cake, but it was easy & it came out pretty nice looking. I used blackberry Jam for this one but I am off to the store to get a more jellies so I can make a variety of jelly roll cakes for our day of fun.
