A celebration of our Cat pals all across the globe. Initially, I was going to host an itty bitty cat swap but have decided to open it up to the entire family, anything from tigers & lions to cheetahs, caracals and domestic cats!
This swap is open internationally(so also be prepared to post globally) and should include a minimum of one handmade themed item(for your swap partner or their cat!) and also something your swap partner can use in a crafty way(this does not have to be cat related).
All crafts and arts are welcome. Jewellery, photography, paper crafts, illustration, upcycled, knitting, sewing, felting, woodwork, printing… everything goes! and I’ll be attempting to pair people with different specialities so we can all see something new!
Here’s a little inspiration for your swap:
To take part, please email the following information to catswap@ilovespoiltpig.com
Your Name:
Postal Address:
Email:
Blog/website: (so your partner can learn more about you!)
Any favourites in the cat family and do you have a cat?:
A little about you: (favourite colours, some interests, style, craft, allergies that your swap partner may need to know about)
Sign up before the 15th March and I’ll get everyone emailed with their swap partners details within the week. Last date for posting to your partner will be the 19th of April, plenty of time to get creating!
. . . . . .
*There’s no minimum or maximum spend on this swap but make sure to send something you would be happy to receive yourself and communicate with your partner throughout.
i am sorely tempted btw, i’m shite at crafy things apart from knitting stuff :/
do it do it do it! It’ll be fun :D I want this one to be open to everyone with all levels of skill n stuff…I’d consider trying something other than resin for a change if I didn’t know it’d be an absolute disaster.
I’m going to sign up! quite fancy a swap at the moment.
Cats – CATS – cats? Did you mention cats?
I’ll get back to you JUST NOW! x
I’m well up for this. I am cat daft. I’ll email you soon as I’m in a bit of a rush tonight.
Being the crazy cat lady that I am I’m sorely tempted. However seeing as my only remotely ‘crafty’ thing is photography I don’t know what I’d do!
I think photography would be ace! I’m sure loads of folk would love to receive a print and you have gorgeous cats :)
Yeah I think a beautiful print would be lovely (if you get me in the swap can Dio be in it too?)
I am in,
since I missed the Alice in Wonderland swap, I thought that for next great swap I will wait really long, but hey there it is :)

We’re in (me and my cat-obsessed 4yo daughter – if anyone else has a little one that would like to have their own partner I’m sure that could be arranged!). Will email you :)
I am in, I would create something that another crafter could use in their own projects, not a finished item but a craft item if you get my drift.
Will email you later on this evening with all details you need

I’d love to do this – cats are one of my favourite creatures – I have one and sometimes I wish I could be one! I’ll email details this evening. Brilliant idea – thanks. x
Hiyas I will do it although not the biggest fan of cats I have posted about it on twitter and facebook for you and on my blog http://johnnycomelatelyaberdeen.blogspot.com/ used your photo hope you dont mind xx
Cheers Faye! x
Yay I will join in too! I wanted to try to make a cat – although the mice are nervous about the idea! – will email you later in the day x
I’m in! I bought the first part to put towards this today! (ok I am sad and should’ve found out who my parter is to be before buying something but ANYONE will like this thing…I think)
yaay! Make sure to email me with the details up there in the post before the 15th…will actually start pairing people up this weekend if I get the time :)
I gave in and signed up :p
I remembered to sign up before the last day! This bodes well for when it comes to posting deadline! :)
