Abstract: An improved portable patio swing of the type being suspended from a free-standing, overhead support frame. The patio swing includes a swing seat including a sling cushion that is suspended within a peripheral seat frame including a pair of opposed, S-shaped arm members being interconnected by seat frame cross-members. The sling cushion features a plurality of articulating compartments formed therein which are capable of folding across the width thereof to conform to the back and rear end of the occupant of the swing. The swing seat is suspended within the overhead support means by predetermined lengths of linked chain or other suitable connecting means which position the swing seat at the desired inclination in relation to the supporting frame.
