Just sew the extra piece to your backing piece then sew it to the other side of the backing which would create a tube. then cut the backing making sure your added piece is in the middle or side if you prefer. this way it looks like the added piece was planned.

i use pieced backs often; i do not understand this 'tube' instruction, sorry ?...
