Watson--a WonderCut ruler works nicely for HST (I do use starch to avoid that stretch). Also, just read to open HSt, carefully press the corners open and make sure to use the tip of the iron to press the (black) half over staying on the straight of grain. that seems to reduce the amount of stretch.

The best ruler I have found to make HST without needing to trim is this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjD3AKiSyPw&t=37s

I really don't know too many people that don't have this problem, unless of course as previously stated you oversize it. I decided a long time ago that I would rather trim a bit than give myself more grey hair!
