Default Homespun second wash

I know this is an old thread but I have a question. I just made a quilt out of homespun fabric for my son. I Did prewash, dry and starch prior to making the quilt. Usually after I make a quilt I like to wash it and put downy in it to make it smell awesome.

Will this homespun quilt continue to shrink when I wash it a second time? It shrunk quite a bit during the prewash.. Just wondering what happens on the second wash.

I double stitched the binding raw edges with seams about 1/8" together and also the quilt edge prior to attaching the binding. Then I hand stitched the binding on. For the ravel factor.
