Being a lefty or not doesn't make or break a decorator. My gramma, a lefty, did wonderful cakes. Yours are doing fine! Even if you go the opposite way as most for your borders, so what? We ALL do things differently. Keep up the good work, and enjoy what you do.
Your cakes look good, and I wouldn't have noticed the lefty-ness if you hadn't mentioned it. Lefties tend to make their borders go opposite ways than righties, but other than that, I don't notice differences between handedness on cakes.
Congratulations on posting your first cakes. Make some more and post those too! We love to see pictures around here.

I think you are doing great! I love the chicken!!!!
You attempted some pretty tough things for first cakes I think. I can never get a heart-shaped cake iced that nicely and the doll cakes are not as easy as they look.
Keep up the good work!!!
I am left-handed also and no one has ever noticed that my borders are "backwards". As someone mentioned, there are a few tips for leftys. I purchased them all (I think there are 5) and so far the ones I find most useful are the flower petal ones. It is easier to get the flower petals to curve the correct way. I have the drop flower tips but can't remember if I've ever used them. Again, the only thing they do is cause the swirl flower to curve the way a righty makes them. I would only spend my money on the petal tips. I believe AC Moore and Michaels (probably Hobby Lobby too) sell them on one card as a set.
Any questions, feel free to PM me. I don't know if my pics are posted on CC, but you can see them at www.chellescakes.com

I think your cakes look great. I too am also left-handed and last Saturday my client's wife was surprised at my work (3D Elmo) and said "You are left-handed, how are you able to decorate cakes?" Apparently she thought that cake decorating could only be done by a right-handed person. Then I show pictures of my past work and proved her wrong.
I wouldn't have noticed it if you didn't say. 
However, I did notice just because you told us that. One of my friends likes to play with cakes when she's bored at work and she's a lefty. I couldn't teach her roses to save my life though! It was so hard for me to attempt so she doesn't do roses! lol
By the way, your cakes look great. You will only improve with time. Even the giants start somewhere!
You are doing just fine. I had some leftys in one of my classes and I finally had to work left handed, so they could actually see how it was supposed to go. I can see the difficulty of looking at work being done from a righty and trying to do the opposite. Sometimes when my right hand gets really tired I switch, but I am not a master southpaw. You will see the difference the more cakes you do. So much of this craft is pressure control and practice.It looks like you are willing to jump in there, so keep up the good work. Keep taking pictures, you will be amazed how you will improve.
I am a southpaw and I have not even thought about being different and who's to say the right way for a border to go, but if you don't tell people the way a border is suppose to go they will not know it is different.
I'm a rightie and my borders go either way. I just have to make sure both my borders (top and bottom) are going in the same direction on one cake. Once I forgot and they were going in different directions, but.....no one noticed except me.
Keep it up, you're doing a great job.
Hey leftys.....you want to freak out a righty????
In course 3 when we learned to do the multiple intertwined drop strings, I did them on a cake to bring to my cousin's (gotta love excuses to decorate!!). He is righty, and he stared at the drop strings for about 5 minutes and then said "Ok, how did you do it?????" I told him to look from right to left and he figured it out immediately!!
