Porch rockin\u2019 and swingin\u2019,<\/em> that is. We think this is crazy good news because what\u2019s more quintessentially comfortable for a lazy summer hang than a porch swing or rocking chair?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Nothing.<\/em> Except a swing or chair made exponentially more satisfying with upholstered cushions and pillows. But are there fabrics somehow offering that settle-in welcome <strong><em>and<\/em><\/strong> still up to the outsized task of outdoor performance? Yes indeed. (On our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/pages\/outdoor_upholstery_fabric\">site<\/a>, pages and pages of them.)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today we\u2019ll give you everything you need to know to choose the perfect upholstery for your porch swing and other outdoor furniture. And we\u2019ll offer you examples to get you inspired to bring <em>your<\/em> unique style and personality to whatever you choose. Time to get your relaxation game into the swing of things \u2014 so to speak.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick Look At The Fabrics You Can Count On To Truly Perform Outdoors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"265\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-8-1024x265.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-8-1024x265.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-8-768x199.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-8.jpg 1111w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, a really simple question. Does it matter what kind of fabrics you choose for cushions for your porch swing, rocking chairs, or other furniture?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just in terms of money and time-suck, yes, 100% it does. You <em>can<\/em> put whatever fabrics you\u2019d like and replace them often. <em>Or<\/em> forever be pulling them in or out of the elements. <em>Or<\/em> be treating and retreating them with various sealant sprays. <strong><em>Or<\/em><\/strong> <strong><em>better yet<\/em><\/strong>, you can take advantage of today\u2019s advanced fabrics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ve talked in-depth about this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/?s=outdoor+fabrics\">many<\/a> times before, but the basic idea is that generally speaking, you\u2019ll stick with Sunbrella, Olefin, and solution-dyed acrylic fabrics. And with those fabrics, we can \u2014 as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/\">largest<\/a> online upholstery fabric store \u2014 pretty much guarantee you\u2019ll have not only performance but also style akin to what you\u2019re used to indoors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cool, right? And for those extra-duty needs (or just as covers and the like), there are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/category\/marine-vinyl-fabric\">marine<\/a> favorites like duck, denim, and vinyl. Now on to how to choose what\u2019s right for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Picking The Best Outdoor Upholstery Fabrics Based On Your <em>Furniture<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"265\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-10-1024x265.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8848\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-10-1024x265.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-10-768x199.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-10.jpg 1111w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two factors play oversized roles in what you choose and why: <em>your furniture and your climate.<\/em> Of course, fabrics are our bailiwick, not so much furniture construction, so we dug around and <a href=\"https:\/\/myporchswings.com\/blogs\/myporchswings\/10-tips-for-choosing-the-best-porch-swing\">learned<\/a> a thing (or three) you might find helpful. Here\u2019s how typical porch swings and other furniture materials perform:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Pine Or Metal<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Upside:<\/strong> Initially inexpensive. Each takes paint well, so personalization is simple. Downside: Both require maintenance and repainting. Plus, pine\u2019s a bit soft and prone to nicks and scratches, while metal can get really, really hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Resin-Based (Faux Lumber Or Wicker)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Upside:<\/strong> Set-it-and-forget-it furniture. Lasts a long time and weathers weather wonderfully. It\u2019s basically fancy plastic wearing a lumber costume.<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Downside:<\/strong> It\u2019s a bit pricier and doesn\u2019t really hold a paint job. Also, you\u2019ll want to tie in cushions because there\u2019ll be a bit of slip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Cedar<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Upside: <\/strong>Harder and more durable than pine and really holds paint well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Downside:<\/strong> Again, it\u2019s a bit pricier than the rest so far and will require some maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Teak<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Upside:<\/strong> The undisputed heavyweight champ of outdoor furniture. All the warmth and appeal of wood but the set-it-and-forget-it of synthetics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Downside:<\/strong> Pricier than the rest and doesn\u2019t take paint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Picking The Best Outdoor Upholstery Fabrics Based On Your <em>Climate<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"265\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-5-1024x265.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8849\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-5-1024x265.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-5-768x199.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.kovifabrics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Upholstery-Fabric-Swatches-5.jpg 1111w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Obviously, where you live changes how you use your porch swing and other outdoor furniture. And it can impact how you choose fabrics. We won\u2019t linger on this point too long because \u2014 <em>again<\/em> \u2014 fairly obvious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bottom line: All of the fabrics we\u2019ve recommended work outdoors. And each has slightly different superpowers. If you\u2019re in an arid, mostly sunny climate, you\u2019ll want to focus on woven, breathable fabrics that offer fade resistance. If you\u2019re in a super wet or swampy climate, you\u2019ll likely prioritize bacteria and mold resistance. Or even full-bore impermeability like vinyl. None of the above requires extra work on your part. Just awareness of where you live and a quick glance at the fabric\u2019s description.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Oh, and yes<\/em><\/strong>. The likes of Sunbrella, Olefin, and solution-dyed acrylic fabrics generally offer fade, weather, and all the above resistances. And vinyl\u2019s not letting any weather through. Period. So that\u2019s today\u2019s fabric weather report. Now back to the studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Time To Dream Up Your Unique Porch Swing Cushion Fabric Design Style<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Time for the fun part. You\u2019re clear about your furniture and where you\u2019ll be enjoying it. And \u2014 thanks, again, to today\u2019s advanced fabrics \u2014 you\u2019re ready to pick patterns that really suit your style. Let\u2019s get your ideas flowing with examples for a spectrum of vibes. <strong><em>What\u2019s your style jam?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Traditional<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Style skewing traditional? Perfect. Take your porch swing cushions there with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/52427\">soft<\/a> blue and white paisley. Or a pleasantly sultry summer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/64085\">sunset<\/a> orange and white stripe fabric. How about chairs decked in basic black and white <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/67735\">plaid<\/a> or a simple, never-fail neutral <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/52306\">heather<\/a> beige canvas?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Modern<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let your outdoor space mirror your modern tastes. Try a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/52536\">Caribbean<\/a> blue geometric pattern or a calming light green <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/14714\">abstract<\/a> instead. And this blue and green <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/20005\">teardrop<\/a> design kind of just makes you smile and breathe easily. Or get a perfect modern fit with this Sunbrella fabric bringing boldly elegant <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/52338\">true-white<\/a> simplicity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Tropical<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sit and swing in tropical breezes. Go with full-on tropical <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/4501\">flowers<\/a> in aqua, pink, and green denim or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/62055\">foliage<\/a> in high-contrast burgundy and white. Play it less tropical but still get vacation vibes with a spa-like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/52440\">lattice<\/a> print fabric. A rocking chair can feel like any icy umbrella drink cushioned in this solid <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/product-detail\/3641\">lime<\/a> green tone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Playful<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make things even more playful <em>and<\/em> stay within your style. Traditional? Try basic stripes with some zing in mango, pink, and orange. Modern? Go with something in lagoon green with a bold modern chevron that shouts, \u201cCome sit here!\u201d Have your swing softly singing in indigo and white Shibori pattern. Or go all-in on a beach theme with a beach shack print in\u2026 um\u2026 all the colors, really.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Waterlogged?<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your furniture is regularly besotted with sogginess, there\u2019s vinyl and faux leather to the rescue. Just had a downpour, but now you want to sit down? No problem. Shake it, wipe it, and you\u2019re ready to settle back in with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kovifabrics.com\/search\/vinyl\/?q=outdoor\">vinyl<\/a>. You might be a smidge (technical term) more limited in style selection. But you\u2019re <em>SET<\/em> for performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Now Rest Easy As You Swing, Rock, And Lounge In Comfort And Style<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we wrap up, you might be itching to dig in and make your own cushion and pillow covers for your porch swing, rocking chairs, and the rest of your outdoor furniture.
