How can I get mold off of cloth cushions for outdoor furniture?

I've kept my cushions in a plastic box and some rain must have seeped in causing my cushions to get mold on them. I don't want to use bleach because obviously that would cause the colour to fade.

Answers:
There is a great new product by DampRId made to prevent and remove mold/mildew, is non toxic and fume free. I used it on my outdoor furniture cusions that are brightly colored and it removed the mildew. It is safe for all fabrics, will not fade or bleach them and leaves a protective residue that inhibits the growth of mold and mildew. It is an easy to use spray on application and you can find it at Lowes in the cleaning aisle for around $5.

Other answers:
If you own a pool, throw them in the pool and let them sit in there for a while. The chlorine will kill the mold and clean the cushions. Seriously.... it's common practice.

My outdoor cushions came with cleaning instructions, so you might want to check with the manufacturer to see if you can get more information from them.

For my cushions, I used a solution of water, mild laundry detergent (I used All Free and Clear) and a small amount of bleach (like 1/4 cup in a 5 gallon bucket). My cushions are white/ivory, so color fading was not an issue for me.

I've never heard of the pool solution suggested above, it sounds reasonable, but I would be a little concerned about how the pool chemicals would impact the fabric as well.
