I think I've decided on the "non" diamond layout. (The first pic) The white squares will be teal, purple, maybe a little black (I haven't bought the fabric for that yet. Thank you all so much for your help and patience!!
2 picture look better to me.

I love the second picture with the shoes in the middle & the white blocks. The shoes really pop. I don't think I would add too many other colors. Maybe a few light pastels.

I think the black is too overpowering in the large blocks or the full borders. I think pattern 2 is the best for showing off the shoes to advantage.
I would use white except for a row of alternating teal and purple squares between the big shoes and the small shoe print. Like bearisgray did, but without the red; having more white lets the shoe blocks stand out. If you want the black, I'd make a narrower, perhaps 5", border between the center panel and the leopard border.
