Most of them are done in straight lines but if you scroll down there are examples of other ways to quilt it.

I've seen it quilted with wavy lines that roughly follow the pattern & that looks really nice, too.
Oh, I forgot, I've seen it quilted with bubbles, too.
And depending on your fabric, you could maybe go with a leafy vine (or feathers -- like Katier's below)

On these 2, I did feathers in the girl's one and on the boy's I did straight line in the colored section and an overall pattern in the white section.
There is a lot of inspiration on Google or Pinterest.

I didn't realize you were quilting on a long arm. I don't have one, but I have heard many long armers say that quilting straight lines was just not worth the trouble. I don't think it would have to be straight lines just because it was for a guy. (Of course, you are probably an expert and will figure it out quickly.)
