Probably means that after you have cut a strip, say 5 in wide x width of
fabric, you the crosscut or subcut (have seen either used) that strip into 5
in segments and you would have a 5 in. square. Clear as mud, huh?

Could they be referring to to cutting on the cross grain of the fabric, as
opposed to straight grain (parallel to selvedge) or bias? That's what my gut
is telling me.

Perhaps if you could quote the sentence containing this word, we could see
how it was used and provide some additional interpretation for you. My
first thought was a subcut, but without seeing how the word was used, this
is only a guess on my part.
