This pretty books cross-stitch pattern would be really cute to make for a teacher appreciation or end of year gift, or for a student who is graduating.
In this 41 by 39 stitch pattern there are a whopping 25 colors, but you could make it a few less by using variegated thread for the books or stitching a couple of the books in the same colors.
Either way this pretty stack of books is topped with a bell and you could easily add words around it if you wanted (thank you teacher or happy graduation, for example).
You can grab this free pattern from Smart Cross Stitch.
