Most of the block pillows I have are very tight before adding a fabric cover, but I do like the idea from Alice about putting a layer of felt on top of the blocks.
<I have heard of some people putting a layer of felt under their pricking when working on a block pillow. This adds just a bit more support when working across the cracks.> I have been using a length of thick grosgrain ribbon under the pricking across the gaps in the blocks to stick the pins into.
