Ornaments for the Wheel Obsessed Set

If you happen to have someone obsessed with wheels and motors you'd like to stitch for, Pocket Full of Stitches has posted photographs of the little ornaments from Strictly Christmas that cater to the small boy and girl in all of us.   These can be hard to find so I hope this helps those who want a motorized Christmas.
