I'd like to know since this is my first year participating in this swap, do you prefer all the items wrapped individually in Christmas wrap?

Someone recently asked this so probably not enough time for responses but I too would like to know if a full one yard cut of fabric full fills the 4 FQ's. I typically don't like FQ's because if I fall in love with one of the FQ's then it's hard to find more of the same fabric. Does that make sense? :0)

One last question and it may have been addressed in past exchanges approximately when do we open the packages? Like around the 1st of December or just when everyone has rec'd a package?
It's my first swap as well.

Looking at past swaps, some people wrapped everything, some didn't. I think it's probably the choice of the sender (I love to wrap presents, some people don't.)

I don't know the "rule" about substituting FQs with a single yard. I'm the opposite though, I love FQs since I enjoy scrappy type quilts. I frequently check out the remnant section at the store.

In the first post, it's mentioned an "open date" will be set later. So, we all get to open our packages "together", even though we may be half a world away from each other.
