Karen Hickman

June 17, 1946 - January 23, 2024


     She has been making beautiful lace since 2003. She was a quick learner and made torchon, Ipswich, Buckspoint, Milanese, Brugges, tatting and crochet. 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.

     Her smile is beautiful. She is loved and thought of with honor.  She will be greatly missed
