Will the Quilt Police issue a citation if I'm forced to piece all of

like I would do with binding? For aesthetics purposes, should I
make each row of long sashing be pieced in about the same place or
should it change from row to row?

I've never received a citation from the quilt police for piecing sashing
strips. I've never fussed with placement of the seams either. I think
they might be less noticeable if they are random, but that's just my
opinion. Seams on the diagonal may be less noticeable, but that might
depend on your fabric; some prints might be better pieced straight.
I've done it both ways.
