T-Top bag stretched

I was putting the T-Tops in the bag yesterday and it seemed they weren't fitting right. I was looking at the bag and it seems to have stretched out. It's as if the edges toward the top of the velcro part are stretched out longer than at the bottom. If I try to hold the edges by the outter seams it is all loose in the middle. Has anyone ever had this happen to them? As far as I know I'm storing them right according to the instructions on the T-Top bag. Even before this happend it didn't seem like the T-Tops ever fit right. Just for clarificaton you store them with the handle part toward the velcro part of the bag both stacked on top of each other correct?

The T-top bag I'm using from an '82 T/A in my '84 is just like that too. Always has been.

Mine fit tight, I have to cram the tops in them, but mine don't have any velcro, just zippers on the bag and pull tight straps to hold the bag down.
