that little square thing at the top edge? What is that called?

I've been considering decorating that wide strip of cloth that works as a closure for the half round copes the priests, and everyone seemingly, wore across the high chest to keep them on as my SCA baronial champions project.

It's called a "morse," although I've more commonly seen that word applied to metal brooch-like fastenings.
