The Thimble Nimble Quilters of Cabot, Arkansas mail out at least 16 quilts a month to our wounded warriors that come into Ramstein Air Force base. We use medium U-Haul boxes. Each box weighs about 22 pounds. It cost us approximately $46 to $50 each box to send eight 55 inch by 66 inch quilts in each box. All our fabric, thread, batting, boxes, tape and quilting is donated by patriotic Americans. We have been doing this for 3 years. We have explored all the other ways of getting these quilts to our warriors. This is the most reliable.
