I will share my experience with scissors.
The ones I use are these:

I tried these because they are labelled as applique scissors, but I find that I much prefer the small curved fiskars for cutting around each fabric after it is tacked down, I had trouble getting used to using these and now they just sit on the shelf:

I think froggy33 answered your other questions, but feel free to ask for more help if needed.
I loved the little scissors that came with my machine b/c they were small & I could get in there & trim close. They got dull in the middle of my quilt project so I had to LEARN to like those applique scissors. They work OK for me now, but I did have to wrap gauze around one of the handles b/c it just rubbed my finger wrong. I haven't had the patience to get used to my curved ones yet. I think I bought everything there was in the beginning!
