I wouldn't worry about it to much. Some batts say to wash before using. I have never done that. I can't imagine what would happen to a batt if I put it in the washing machine. I certainly am not going to wash something like that by hand unless it is for a doll quilt size piece. If the quilt is meant to hang on the wall it will probably never be washed anyway. If it does shrink horribly it wasn't good fabric to begin with.
Good luck.

I wouldnt worry either. You can quilt a little closer together to contain the layers even better.
One thing I can recommend NOT to do: wash the unfinished top. I HAD to wash a top I got from my MIL and it was nasty. So I washed it and now I still have to wrangle the mangled mess of seams.
