Do you mean no problems when you're stitching it down later? Just want to make sure :)
I use the same method as Sharon, I use blanket stitch on the machine after ironing fusible web to applique, cut around where I want, then stitch. If you are too close to the applique, you can shred the edge a little and leave an unfinished look.
