That's a derivative that's new to me too...always heard it as frog stitchin'...and I've used it so much that even my DH knows what it means and uses it appropriately...right after he hears the machine stop and I've had long enough to see the booboo and groan...he'll ask if I need to do some frog stitchin'... just like kids, they remember the "good" stuff!
Some of my sewing buddies refer to the same activity as "Reverse Sewing".
