3. Cut the corners off each side and sew to the opposite side. You now have two resulting blocks that each have 4 stripes across each one.

I think you could probably figure out how to strip piece these, though, using the tube piecing method. The book I did this pattern from said to do it as stated above, so I just followed along with that.
I did OK up to step #3 then I got confused (not hard to confuse me). But I think you're right-on using the tube piecing method.
