Quick answer

To pack a 15lb Fill-A-Box for shipping, start by buying the box from GE Quilt Designs. Then, fill it with your fabric orders over time, making sure to distribute weight evenly and avoid overstuffing. When the box is full, request shipment and your fabric will be delivered for one flat fee.

Understanding the Fill-A-Box Program

The Fill-A-Box program from GE Quilt Designs is a prepaid shipping solution for quilters who buy fabric regularly. Instead of paying shipping on every order, you purchase a 15lb box, fill it with your purchases over time, and then ship the whole thing for a single flat fee. This can save you money and hassle, especially if you order fabric frequently.

The box is set up in the warehouse after your first checkout with just the box in your cart. After that, every fabric order you place gets added to your personal box until it reaches the weight limit or you decide to ship. You can add orders over days or weeks, making it flexible for your shopping pace.

Steps to Pack Your 15lb Fill-A-Box

  1. Purchase the 15lb Fill-A-Box: Go to GE Quilt Designs and add the 15lb Fill-A-Box to your cart. Checkout with only the box in your cart. This sets up your personal box in the warehouse. Common mistake: adding fabric to the same cart as the box. The box must be purchased alone to activate your account.
  2. Place fabric orders as usual: After your box is set up, shop for fabric normally. Each order will be added to your Fill-A-Box automatically. You can place multiple orders over time. Checkpoint: keep track of your total weight. The box holds up to 15 pounds, so avoid exceeding that limit.
  3. Request shipment when ready: When your box is full or you want your fabric, contact GE Quilt Designs to request shipment. The box will be shipped to you for the flat fee you already paid. Common mistake: waiting too long to ship can delay your fabric. Ship when the box is full or you need the items.
