The pwd of the "make target" is the folder where you created it. So if you 
create the target in the project root folder your build command is:
make -C SubFolder1

The best thing is to open the "Make Target" view. There you can see all 
your make targets and can edit or execute them. I would suggest you enable 
the icon "Hide empty folders" (top of the view), so you only see the 
actual targets and not the whole source tree.
