WIP - First Piece

So I decided to venture into yet another hobby and am making a piece for my wife's birthday. As you can see there is ALOT of overlap that I will either have to chip away at or grind off, but im learning alot and having fun. I think my main problem at the moment is using such a thick marker to mark out my pieces and being scared to go too close to the line in case I ruin the piece of glass. Fingers crossed I post again in a week or two the finished product.
