Thank you for some good ideas on this problem, I think I might try this
liquid bandage one first and see how it goes.
Some of the others I would find very impractical, I do have a pin pusher
tool, but when working lace I do the stitch, pick up the pin and push in
and then continue to work, if I stopped to pick up a tool each time,
well I dont think I would. When I am pushing in a number of pins to
turn a piece then I do use it, but its the single pin in the work that
is what I am trying to help. Some pieces (or may be it is some pillows)
I have to push harder.
Robin, you made me laugh because you exactly described my attempts to
use a thimble, yes it saves the finger, but only because I use another
finger, <g>
You are all such a mine of useful help, thanks.

I wonder if the liquid bandage stuff would work? I use it occasionally
(just paint on a few layers and let dry) when I am quilting or
appliqueing when my finger gets too sore.

work, if they stay put on the finger for an evening

Maybe its time I searched some out and got them ordered.
