Murphy bed and quilt finally finished!
#11
Nice job all around. I see you did the same thing we did with our Murphy bed...but it close to the wall...have you been challenged when you have to put the sheets on? Ours is a queen size and didn't have any choice...we were just happy to get it done and in...sure makes great space for play time!
We use a fitted sheet and just fold the top sheet/quilt from the sides and foot onto the mattress pull the two mattress retainer (elastic) over the two ends and lift all into the wall unit. Pillows are stowed in a locker due to the max 12" depth for mattress and covers.

Very nice job! I have been after my husband for some time to make me a similar Murphy bed! I will make the quilt for it, though. The parts just for the up/down mechanism are pretty expensive, plus it looks like you used a nice wood for the frame - what kind?
