stitch marker
Io penso che sia qull'attrezzo che si passa sul cuoio/pelle per segnare i punti in modo equidistante in cui verrà infilato l'ago e finire con una cucitura regolare. Sul sito in basso si vedono molto modelli (google image)

saddle stitching
I think that cucitura marca punta is a stitching technique that remains visible - You don't say whether your text is shoes or upholstery - I found an example for Italian leather chair upholstery. To me it looks like saddle stitching
