Default Machine applique Circles

I am still new to applique and have a question for machine applique. I want to make a circles quilt that uses circles cut from a scratched DVD. I want to be able to fold over the edges in order to zig zag the edges so there is never any fraying. Is there a way to do this to keep the curve? I still can't get smooth curves using satin stitching and am kindof frustrated. Using just a zig zag I would likely get fraying when it was washed and dried.

I'm trying to make a quilt like this.

I should add that I do not want to use permanent interfacing. I don't like the feel of it on a large piece, so I was using dissolving interfacing.
