About us
My name is Bernadette Thomas, trading as Needlewitch (ABN 43 950 367 267) - I opened the antiques side of my business in 1999. I am a GST registered business and can provide a tax invoice on request. I was a licensed antiques dealer and initially traded at antiques fairs and markets but joined Canberra Antiques Centre in Fyshwick, ACT in 2004. When the owner retired and closed his business in 2023, I moved everything to Adelaide and opened my eBay store in 2024.
I am also a qualified custom dressmaker and dressmaking teacher and work from home in Eastern Adelaide.
All the sewing patterns I sell are either in factory folds or have been physically checked for completeness. I check all stock carefully and describe it to the best of my abilities - any flaws will be identified in the auction description. If an item arrives and is not as described please contact me asap to discuss your options - my aim is to have a pleased customer.

- e***e (63)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI was overjoyed today when the mail arrived and I received this book! It was very well packed and safely made the journey from Australia to Ohio. At nearly a century old, it’s in remarkably great condition, exactly as pictured in the listing. I’d been looking for a specific issue of GE Review from the 1928 year and was thrilled to find the entire year in a hardbound volume. These periodicals are filled with engineering knowledge, some of which is still very much relevant today. Thank you!Reply from: needlewitch- Feedback replied by seller needlewitch.- Feedback replied by seller needlewitch.I'm so pleased thank you!
