Swatch This

Outdoor fabrics used to be boring. Now? Fabulous.

By Elizabeth Entenman
Swatch This
Your chances of finding stylish outdoor fabrics used to be about as slim as your family getting through a game of lawn darts without someone taking one in the toe. Well, the darts are dead and so are those drab tans and taupes that didn't do much more than bring out the brown in your backyard dirt. These days, designers like Brunschwig & Fils, Kravet, F. Schumacher and Weatherwize are rolling out all-weather bolts in bold colors and fun patterns that won't fade in the sun or wilt in the rain but will definitely brighten up your next barbecue.
