A Christmas Shirt Becomes an Apron!

I DON'T wear Christmas shirts or sweaters anymore.  Rather than donate this shirt, which was a gift, I decided to alter it I had one yard of Christmas themed fabric on hand, and a red cotton bias trim usually reserved for quilts.  I had the components to make an apron!

The shirt was cut apart at the shoulder seams and the back also had a seam.
