Thanks everyone for the comments - this is Suzanne McNeill's 10-Minute Block pattern. I used 12 fat quarters rather than 10" layer-cake blocks - I cut two 9 inch squares from each and mixed & paired them up for half square triangle blocks (that's what gives it a diagonal set look) and then proceeded with her directions (also used 6" yellow squares for the 10 min block centers). I had enough left of the fat quarters to make the piano key borders.

Default 10 Minute Nap - close up

Here is a close up of the 10 min block - I serpentine quilted the entire quilt to soften some of the lines. Also used one of my decorative stitches on the block centers.

This is fantastic! It reminds me of an old game board.
