Marigold, scabiosa, cosmos, eucalyptus, coreopsis, morning glory, madder, indigo, cochineal. Colors from plants carry the properties of the plant with them into the fabric. Dyes from plants have a quality of color unlike synthetics and history with us as humans and makers that is very old. I grow, forage, and purchase botanicals responsibly for my dyes and inks.

Leah creates series of wall hangings using plant dyed cotton, often incorporating scraps from previous projects, further minimizing textile waste.

If you feel passionate about waste based art or sustainable practices in fashion and have as little as $3 a month to spare, consider becoming a Patreon Member.  Patrons help me keep working in a very real way.

Patrons see new products first and get a behind the scene look at Round Trip!

Round Trip Goods is a cis-gendered white woman owned business. I acknowledge that my privileges are largely responsible for my ability to do my art. I work to be less ignorant, do minimal harm to the communities around me, and support other artists along the way.

I honor traditional textile workers, cotton pickers, block printers, garment workers, the Cheyenne and Arapahoe peoples who are indigenous to where I now live and work, and the dyers who have kept ancient earth skills and knowledge alive through the horrors of colonization and the growing climate crisis.

Items are embedded with living plant dyes and will change with you over time. This is natural and part of the journey of the fabric and plant infusion. Some colors darken, some lighten, some shift.

If you have the time, hand washing is best but a delicate machine cycle with like colors and cold water works too. Tumblr dry with low heat or hang dry.

Ironing items after they dry works great at getting cotton back to a smooth finish.
