Reshaping a round object while maintaining edge quality

Hello!

I am trying to reshape a round image, with a very distinct texture and edge quality, into various different shapes. Most shapes will just have a small section knocked out of the circle (like turning an O into a C), but I want to maintain the edge quality and interior texture. I've played around with a few things but can't figure out the best way to accomplish this. Any ideas? What would you guys do?

Here is an image of a coffee stain to use as an example.

I'd like to turn it into a rounded "C" shape, like this:

Thanks so much for your help!

I just used the LIQUIFY FILTER.
 
Hi, thank you for your response!

I tried liquify before posting, but that wasn't quite what I was looking for. Liquify makes it too smooth. I really want to maintain the rugged edge quality of the stain so it looks like the stain was actually made in the "c" shape. I thought maybe I could use liquify to start, then go back and add the edge quality back in, but I wasn't really sure how to do that.

Thank you for your help!
 
You should be able to use the Liquify tool to rough up the edge as well, just make your brush really small.
