solution dyed acrylic by the yard
If your patio cushions fade after one summer, it's time to switch to solution dyed acrylic by the yard. Unlike fabrics printed or dyed after weaving, solution dyed fibers get their color before they're spun into yarn, so the color runs all the way through each thread. That makes this fabric a long-lasting choice for projects that live in the sun.
Why Choose Solution Dyed Acrylic Fabric?
Color locked into the fiber means strong fade resistance and easier cleaning. Many outdoor acrylic fabrics also carry a water repellent finish and resist mildew, making them a favorite for sewists working on gear that faces sun, rain and humidity.

What to Look For
Check each listing for weight, width, finish and recommended uses. Lighter weaves suit pillows and upholstery, while heavier canvas holds up better for awnings and covers. Think about color too: lighter shades stay cooler in direct sun.
