Either:
a) The original image's fuzziness isn't quite as visible because it's less contrasted
or
b) Before converting to VTF you saved your textures in a low-quality JPEG format.

hmmmm i haven't really imported many textures into the Valve format, but just go through your VTFEdit settings and make sure that all the resolutions and quality settings are correct and all that jazz.
