Quilt pattern says "sew each set into a tube." I picture somehow sewing onto an empty paper towel tube! :-)

Seriously, what does sew strips into a tube mean????

Sew the narrow end of the strips together, so it forms a circle.

Sew the unsewn edge of your first strip to the unsewn edge of your last strip. Search "tube quilting" for a picture.

Thanks so much everyone for the info! I'm trying to figure out the Dec La Table table runner pattern.
