To FMQ, you need a darning foot in place, and lowered feed dogs...also, space...you don't have that with a serger.
With Satin, I would add an interfacing to the satin as I stitched the blocks...or use a fusible first, before cutting the pieces out.
Actually, instead of a serger, why not a foundation pieced quilt? Cut the foundation squares in the size (plus seam allowance) you want and either draw the shapes onto the fabric foundation, or just do strips of satins, and stitch them on with a domestic machine?
I think I personally would put a lightweight, non-woven, fusible on the back of the satin, before serging...serged satin just does not hold up well...it will pull apart with washing..and a quilt in satin would have to be drycleaned. I'd use the fusible first, or do a foundation pieced quilt, and use a 1/2" seam allowance.
