The problem is that you're quoting (using the shorthand ') your variables,
which means they will appear as symbols in your list and not be substituted.
Compare this:
(setq muse-project-alist
(list
'("website" ; my various writings
("~/Pages" :default "index")
(:base "html" :path "~/public_html")
(:base "pdf" :path "~/public_html/pdf"))
(list "Info"
(list muse-path :default "index")
(list :base "html" :path (concat muse-path "\\HTML")))))
If you want a nicer muse-define-project syntax, write a method or play
around with a macro :)
