This was my first attempt at turned legs. I started out trying to turn the pummels with a skew chisel, so for insurance I prepared a fifth leg blank. I needed it. The aprons have a cross-grain dimension of nine inches. Where I live that means 1/8″ of seasonal movement, so the aprons are joined to the legs with two tenons. The upper tenon is glued and pinned with a fixed pin. The lower tenon is unglued and slotted to slide on its pin as needed.
