The English vowels are a shit in the ass to make a decent, dialectal-agnostic spelling. However, it can be done. I'll use the lexical sets from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexical_set:

Since English has too much vowels, every phonemic vowel corresponds to a digraph. This can be worked around with umlauts and acutes, so I'll list both alternatives:

OLDSPELLING...NEWSPELLING
kit,ship......ie/i
seed,key......ii/ï
near,beer.....ir/ir

cub,rub.......ue/u
nurse,hurt....ur/ur
foot,full.....uu/ü

And it goes all like this, complete the set if you are in mood :D
(Hint: see Wiktionary, see IPA for words, ????, profit!)
