Hats!  

Fritzie enjoyed Hats very much.   It is clear that she took great pleasure wearing hats and made some of the hats she wore.  When she made Ballet costomes, head dresses, must have been part of her work.

The hats and beehives era of the 60’s and 70’s were also the years when we children were finishing high school, going to college and in general leaving the family nucleus.  

She found it possible to abandon her sewing more and more, but her flair for fashion was always there.  Her charm, elegance and poise were ever with her…………..

For Fritzie it was the time for her to be more and more involved with her husband, his activities and his business.  They worked together, they traveled together, they socialized together.
