So true! I prewash because when I made garments all the time I washed first to make sure nothing was going to shrink.
I pre shrink my battings that are 80% cotton too. I have found that they will shrink about 6" in both directions.

Thank you for that tid-bit on the battings, i never thought they wood shrink.
