Lynnie, a cute pincushion can be made with a few EPP hexagons. You can use as few or as many as you have time to make. You can use a coordinating fabric for the back. Of course, it will still take at least a little sewing to put the pincushion together, but it could almost be done by hand if need be. It is very good of you to offer to teach this class. Good luck in your adventure.
