Like the second option best, but not totally happy with it.
I think I would either go with a solid corner or do a 4 patch with the two small white squares leading the eye into the center.
or...maybe use the diamondy square in a square block for your cornerstone?
The small white square just doesn't look properly proportioned to everything else, although I see your reason for trying to echo the 'arrow' look of the main blocks.

I like the bottom one, but it needs another light square on the corner.
Added: Yes, I looked again, and that little white square by itself looks unbalanced, like it's just hanging there. It's distracting. Either use more of the red print or do a 4 patch with another white square to balance the white square.

But I can't quite explain why. I think it might be that they are small in proportion to the corner square in the fancy border right inside that last border.
