That's what McKenna Ryan does with her fusible applique ..... straight stitch close to the edge with invisible thread. If you go to her website, she has helpful suggestions on how to do that. Then maybe do "bubbles" in the background to look like bubbly water? It is a great looking quilt (I also have that stacked in my "to do" pile) and you did a nice job on it.

PS: Do you think you could add a piece of that turtle fabric to the boo-boo to finish out the shell on the edge ... if you know what I mean? You could fuse it on to make it fit the design maybe? Still, it is a great quilt. I want to do one for our beach and ocean themed bathroom.
