tions have become so valued in our
community that there are probably
few who do not know of Fred
Smith and his exquisite pieces.
Ready for exhibit on Saturday
will be a huntboard, twin pencil
post beds, and a lovely corner
cabinet, among other items.
Also on Saturday, Cordelia Pur
die will have her cross-stitch ready
to go and mom's and Barbara
Rozier will Have selected the best
of their colintry crafts to sell.
Delton Hardin and his wife,
Juanita, are another Hoke County
couple who jointly create country
crafts. They will have available,
shelves and hand pairitrrl items, all
created to finish up that country
corner you've been planning for
the den.
Woodworking seems to be a
popular past time in Hoke County
and Reverend Charles Ansley,
pastor of the Antioch Presbyterian
Church, is right in there with the
best of them.
"1 enjoy woodworking. It's
relaxing. It seems a shame to waste
good wood so I look for odd pieces
in order to net a different wain in
my work," explains Ansley.
He will have plenty of tables to
sell, probably priced just right,
since he says he has no more room
in his house for them all.
He proudly reports that all his
work is created from Hoke County
wood. He has items from walnut,
oak and cedar, so be sure to stop
by his booth on Saturday and see
what Reverend Ansley has done
with these lovely woods.
Also exhibiting wooden crafts
will be Tim McKenzie, Bennie
Turbeville and Bruce and Carol
Holland.
Newcomers to our community,
Hazel and John Dillman, will have
crocheted dolls and jewelry for
sale. Mrs. Dillman has a selection
of dolls, including Popeye, Olive
Oyl and Sweet Pea, all of which
would make Christmas selections
easy.
Ed Byrd, a familiar artist in our
community will be present with
about thirty needlepoint clocks, all
boasting emblems for State,
Carolina, ECU, Duke and others.
He also has some of the profes
sional .teams, so everyone will have
a choice.
Someone new to art exhibition is
local resident, Cathy Jacobs.
Jacobs has a variety of items to of
fer, including unusual pretzel
wreaths, "bagel mice," country
window wreaths and country
baskets.
She also will have on, hand
something she is excited about
because it is so unusual.
"I've been told that it has an In
dian look, because of the beads
and burnt wood look," she says.
"I have no idea how well it will go
over. It's basically just an experi
ment."
The Turkey Festival will be an
outstanding event for Raeford and
Hoke County. The artists and
craftspeople who will be there
representing our county will cer
tainly offer one of our county's
best facets. See you there!
