I did make a quilt with curved lines many years ago. I took a class by the gal that made the pattern and she gave us so many tips, that it went together pretty easily.
Your's is great! Love the colors in it.

I'm with Jillane. I , too, want to know. I still hand cut my material since I use scraps from other projects. Does that mean we couldn't do a good job?

When first learning quilting, did a Drunkard's Path by hand piecing. Hated it!! Haven't tried again. You just might have given me inspiration to try it again - but - by machine!!

I want to try curves next too, but am finishing one with points and will probably do a much easier one before I tackle something like what you did.
I love the Drunkard's Path and love what you did with it.
Congratulations!
