Cathie Zimmerman is a full-time digital designer for Quiltable.She started piecing quilts 18 years ago. She fell in love with the piecing process but had trouble finding a longarm machine quilter to finish her quilts the way she envisioned them.
What to do…
Cathie purchased a longarm quilting machine and started finishing her own tops. Within a year, she felt comfortable enough with her skills to start quilting for others. She was able to hone her skills using a variety of printed pantographs, lots of free-motion, and finishing many custom quilts.
Flash forward through home longarm business, quilt-shop owner/operator, longarm educator, machine technician, and product test/development to today. It’s an unusual skill set and she feels blessed to have been able to apply this to Quiltable.
“I quilt, and I know things – that’s what I do.”
E2E or customized, finishing quilts is what it is all about. Cathie says she has the best career in the world, designing digital quilting patterns and coordinating the Quiltable web site designs. Living the dream!

Consider stitching this design twice to create a cross-hatched grid design. Wide Rule lines are spaced ½” apart. Narrow Rule Lines are spaced at ¼” apart. Rounded Rule Lines stop 1/16” from the edges of the block to help prevent drift into the next block. Can be used horizontally or vertically. Recommend lowering machine speed and acceleration to prevent shredding thread when stitching right-to-left and front-to-back on larger blocks. See other designs from this collection.
