Hi Sue -
Our skillful friends have given you lots of good ideas, and I don't want
to offend you by bringing up the obvious, but can't help pointing out
one possibility... I trust that your are pricking your pricking before
it's pinned to the pillow, but I wonder if you've tried using a larger
needle in your pricker? I had trouble a while back, because even with
very fine pins, I was getting a sore finger, and worse... I was bending
an awful lot of pins!! I came to the conclusion that I needed to use a
bigger needle in the pricker, and... TA -DAA! Problem solved.

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.
