I just leave all the edges raw, since it is a wall hanging, it doesn't get much wear, so the fusing takes care of it.
I have found it is better to use a heavy fusible, and to test the fabric before doing anything to see how easily it unravels. The red quilt needed to be trimmed even after it was pressed onto the background, I think becuase it was a lower thread count fabric (remember, I am cheap).
