Default Applique Seahorse

I made the seahorse applique after making the stained glass window, and wondered what to do with it. So, I appliqued the seashells to go around it. The braided border was a first attempt. Wasn't sure what to do along top and bottom, so I improvised. I FMQ around the appliques-thinking that practice makes perfect, so go for it!
My walking foot fell apart while quilting this quilt the first time. Finished it yesterday!
(I included a pic of the window that inspired)
