I am finding my royal icing is soft , and I am not sure if its from the heat of my hands , or the recipe ? I do know the peak is to stand up ! or is it better to use parchment bag , !

They look pretty good too Gail.  Which do you think has given you the better finish?  I would expect it to be the Royal Icing, but you never can tell lol!

Great job Gail.  I can see that your icing is melting a little as it goes, but your piping is terrific.  The cake looks lovely
