I worried about the same thing. But actually, when you think about it .... you make the cuts on the bias. I made a drawing .... the dotted yellow lines are the stitched lines and the red lines are the cuts between them. There shouldn't be any ravels or fraying, as all the "raw" ends are anchored by the remaining fabric and by the stitched lines.
I saw almost no sign of raveling when I washed this.
