I use the stencil cutter. It heats up and melts off the edged safely... I don't think I would trust open flames either,

I use WSS and I still get fuzzies, no matter how hard I try. I clip very very close to the stitch line, but there always seems to be a few threads pop out. I have even put Clear WSS topping over the design. Just can't get a nice clean edge.
