Please bear with me as I begin this, my blogging adventure. There may be rambling, going off on a tangent and possibly even some inane cackling. Hopefully not too much of the latter. 😉
I’m Amanda aka @stitchcastnsow. Some know me as Py or Pythia. I’ll even answer to AJ!
I have begun this blog as a fresh start and to bring together the different aspects of my life into a cohesive yet eclectic mashup. A bit like me. The latter anyhow, I’m working on the former. 🤷♀️😁
I’m a pagan witch who enjoys sewing and gardening. I learnt the basics of sewing from my mom and gardening from my dad. I learn more with each year that passes and endeavour to continue in the same vein. You can never know too much in my opinion.
I was drawn to paganism from a young age as I have always found the duality of nature inspiring and comforting in equal measure.
I…contend with panic disorder which tends to throw a spanner in the works when I least expect it. I used to say ‘I suffer with..’ but am trying to break my habit of using that word as it makes me sound like a victim and reinforces the feeling of being weak or a failure. I’d rather consider it as a foe I need to overcome or dispatch. A puzzle to be solved.
Mental health is important and it may well crop up in my posts along the way. Therefore I’d rather be upfront as it is a part of my journey, though by no means its entirety.
If any of this interests you, please stick around. I’ll post again soon,..there may even be pictures. 🤞
Stitch, Cast 'n' Sow
