Two more things to consider, number one, put 'Handle With Extreme Care" on the outside of the box and number two, I would have it insured for the duration of the shipping process. Peckish is right about boxes becoming wet, but they can also become so damaged that the contents are damaged, too. Considering the amount of time, effort and love you put into the quilt, it would be shame if something were to happen and it not arrive in pristine condition. If you can, ship it via UPS, they are the best in the business when handling things like this. And definitely track it.
