I've seen several strip piecing patterns that use the term sub-cut. Cut these strips, sew together, sub-cut at this size. Maybe newer quilt designers have to make up new terminology so the pattern can be "theirs".
Nope, not true in my case! I still read all the directions to every published pattern from the first to the last before I ever pick up a piece of fabric and drag it to my cutting table. If I don't I am sure to make a mistake somewhere. Heck, I might even make a couple anyway! :lol:
