Default Prewashing batting

I like to preshrink batting, and I had a problem doing it in my dryer. So what I did recently is soak Hobbs 80/20 in hot water in the bathtub. I tried very hard not to stretch it at all when i dried it. However, it measured 125" x 126" before I soaked it, and it measures 136" x 136" now. How is that possible?
