Outdoor Cushions

Choosing Fabric for Outdoor Cushions

Outdoor-cushion fabric should be chosen for the location, exposure, cleaning routine and expected wear. Consider water resistance, abrasion, colour variation, seam construction and whether cushions can be stored away from severe weather.

Planning your project

  • Measure finished cushions and allow for seams, pattern direction and waste.
  • Confirm fabric width before calculating metres.
  • Check the current composition, coating and care instructions.
  • Remember that seams and zips affect the finished item’s moisture resistance.
