Help w/ Extrusion with Sweep

The stretcher of a dresser has a series of arches along the bottom edge, a bead detail which follows the curves of the arches, and a gently curved face from top to bottom (see photo). In the screenshot is my attempt to model this. My three operations (extruded arches, extruded curved face, bead sweep along arches) in any order I try does not give me what is in the photo. I can find help here on one of these topics but not all three. If you can help refine my thinking, operations, process, or point me in the right direction I would appreciate it!

Attaching your Fusion 360 file to the thread will help understanding the problem.

The splines for the arches have overlaps and gaps, so none of those operations will work.  Here it is with a fillet edge:

My changes to your file are in Componet4.
