Longeye - Here is a how-to on a slightly alternative way to do saddle stitching I wrote up a few years ago. A lot of my students have found this to be helpful as an alternative to the standard stitch method due to various problems. I worked up this method after the arthritis in my hands got so bad that I can no longer hold the awl and needles at the same time.

perhaps this will help.
PS Some of the suppliers listed maybe out of date - if so ask and I'll recommend others.
