Giant Millipede Plush

 I decided to make a giant millipede plush toy for my daughters. As if we don't have enough stuffed toys laying around. So, I made him out of a couple of blankets that I found for cheap. Lots of times you can get a minky blanket for cheaper than the fabric costs at the store.

Making all the little legs out of fuzzy string took forever.

I made him in a way so that you can pull on his antennae and curl him up in a spiral like real millipedes do for defense.

He makes a great seat cushion like this.

We named him Huppala because that's what you say in German when you go over a speed bump and he looks like a speed bump.

The girls already love him!
