There are different ways. I have one with 6 rails at 1 1/2' width.

My avatar is a king size split rail pattern with six rails. There is a small inside border of a batik w/most of the rail colors in it, then a wider border of the darker, dominate rail fabric.

My husband made a rail fence (3 strips) and then set them on point...different way to lay out a traditional block. Here's a closeup of his quilt.
