Pin larger heart cut-out to a doubled over black piece of lace. This will result in two black lace heart cut-outs to make for a thicker look.

Sew leopard print heart to black lace hearts. I chose to hand sew this by hand, but you may use a sewing machine.

Sew Black Heart to Shirt

I also sewed this on by hand, but once again it is up to you if you prefer a machine. I've had some struggles with sewing lace using my machine, but experienced sewers should have no problem.

Sew on Sequins

I hand-sewed the sequins to the shirt around the black lace, leaving room to reveal the black lace heart. Tip: don't cut the sequins strip until finished sewing it to the shirt.
