Following on from my review of Some Tame Gazelle, below... I'm too late to enter Thomas's competition for designing your own Barbara Pym cover (it closed on 7 June) and nothing can compare to the beautiful Moyer Bell designs he posts here, but I couldn't resist giving it a go anyway. And I only have MS Paint to work with...

I love your ecclesiastical cover, Simon, very appropriate. Even better if you could have combined it with some teacups.
ReplyDeleteThat would be perfect, wouldn't it! Thanks Lyn :)
DeleteOh yes, I love no. 2's bold graphics too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Vicki! I thought I'd try to take a leaf out of Moyer Bell's books (not literally... that would be appalling!)
DeleteI like the teacups a lot Simon - much nicer than the silly modern Virago ones and the vintage-style patterns are much more in keeping with how I imagine Belinda and Harriet's taste in decor!
ReplyDeleteI do love that teacup print - there are some wonderful things on etsy.
DeleteThey are all wonderful... it's very hard to choose! I suppose that's why I have multiple editions of so many books ;-)
ReplyDeleteVery nice! You certainly have better design skills than I :) I really like the teacups, but then I always like teacups. The ecclesiastical repeat is very interesting also. The last one reminds me of some large print books in my library right now... Glad you decided to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteYours were wonderful Melwyk! AND you entered before the deadline ;)
DeleteTeacups are the best, aren't they? Well, so is wisteria. But it did come out looking a bit large print edition...
I love the teacups, absolutely great!
ReplyDeleteBless etsy, they have such good things!
