About Sardine Clothing Co.

Sardine Clothing Company started in 2008 with a sewing machine and one woman making kids clothing from thrift store finds. After a few years, it is still one woman (and friends!) and A LOT of sewing machines making fun “everyday favorite” clothing and accessories from even more thrift store finds. I am Maryanne Petrus-Gilbert, and I am a little fishy. I believe in reusing anything you can, and found my niche in re-purposing gently used clothing. I love shuffling through the racks at my local thrift stores for t-shirts, cashmere, wool, and other articles of clothing that can be cut up and made into new, unique articles of clothing and accessories. I personally free-sew whimsical image appliqués on every item we produce, making each item a one-of-a-kind handmade work of art! Not only will you want to live in your Sardine Clothing Company's super soft up-cycled clothing, your purchase helps reduce how much textile waste ends up in landfills, which makes this a better planet!
