Cuttings is the most reliable (and easy) way to get more plants. Take them now and watch them sprout.
If your fuschias are medium to small flowered, they'll be good and hardy and easily survive outside - provided the roots don't freeze, same as most plants. The bigger and showier the flowers the less hardy, rough rule of thumb.
