you fold your fabric accordion style so that the length of fabric is parallel with the cutting blades--check out the website for Accuquilt and their video's on cutting tips. don't think the fold vs. selvage end is the issue--just as long as length of grain lined up--so you'd have selvages on one of the edges of the strip dies--otherwise it would be cutting cross grain (from selvage to selvage)
