The KRR Bed is made from solid Cherry planks and "woven" panels of Mardrone.  I mitered the corners of the headboard and footboard to allow the grain to be continuous down both feet.  By locating sequential planks of quartersawn Cherry, I was able to keep the grain on the headboard, footboard and drawer rails to be nearly identical, and pleasing to the eye.  I focused on the sapline, using that as a element of continuity.  The drawers are dovetailed by hand and have Ash sides.  The bottoms are waxed Port Orford Cedar.  There are also two "secret" panels at the headboard on either side.
