This is a Greene & Greene style bed I designed based on inspiration from a photo.  I have only been woodworking for a few years so this was a little beyond my skill level - but I didn't let that stop me.  Need to give credit to my wife for encouraging me - and she made the quilt.

P.S. The quilt is terrific, too.
