Karen Hickman

She was very generous with her time and talent. She taught bobbin lace to numerous people through Lifetime Learning in Austin. She demonstrated bobbin lace at various history festivals through-out the state. She served as President and other officers of Austin Lace Guild.  She also served IOLI as membership chairman.
