Cassandra Ireland Beaver won 1st Place two years in a row with her straight-line quilting. So what did she do next? How about "No Straight-Line Quilting." This quilt, titled iSpy, is 44" x 48" and was entered in the Small Wall Quilts - Quilters Choice category at AQS Paducah Spring 2017. The quilt is square, but I didn't see any other straight lines.
