I've been thinking about adding a new challenge and think I've come up with some thing.
The challenge
(the film with David Bowie in)
There are so many unusual characters with in the walls of the Labyrinth and we only got to see a few in the film.
What I'd like to put forward to you all is to design your own character be it a monster, fairy, bug,elf..... what ever you think would live within the goblin kings realm let your imagination flow
A reminder of what the story and other inhabitance look like http://www.geocities.com/amuletts/labyrinth.html

2, you may use any Fabric you like
3, please do not enter critters you have already made
4,you may make any type of critter you like

good luck everyone

Alright.... this is just WEIRD!! I just came from looking at The World of Froud website (http://www.worldoffroud.com/www/main.cfm) and clicked on this challenge!!
For anyone who doesn't know about the Frouds... from the website: "Wendy Froud worked as sculptor and puppet builder for Jim Henson for many years, primarily on the films THE DARK CRYSTAL, LABYRINTH and THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK. She sculpted "Jen" and "Kira" for THE DARK CRYSTAL and "Yoda" for THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK."
Very cool site. Check it out for inspiration!
Must be an omen that I must join in this challange.
:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: Oh what fun!!! I love that movie!!! I have it on tape & dvd...lol. Needle Felted OK?

I am also a big fan of Brian Froud Ann. I have several of his books.
I used the pages from the squashed fairy calender as shelf liners in the linen cupboard.
I'll be in it. I have something I have been working on and off for sometime. It will give me incentive to finish it.

Hi everyone,
I would love to part of this challenge, but I am afraid to comment because things change so quickly and I sometimes can't get it done. But, I so want to do this one - :dance: :dance: it is right up my alley.
dido Wendy, I have talked - (emailed) Brian and Wendy Froud- they are the nicest people. They are really big in the doll world, as you all know.
So, July 1st ---hmmmmm ? can I get it done? I have one I have been waiting to have an excuse to make.
Did not think she would be one the collectors would go for. LOL
well, ...... ???
hugs kassie
I'd say just give it a try if this gets your imagination going go with it

:crackup: :crackup: OK...here it is!!! :crackup: :crackup: This little kritter is pretty silly, but was a lot of fun to make. It is 3 1/4 inches tall & 6 inches including hair. It's been great fun in the labryinth.
Hugs &
Oh Charlotte!! I LOVE him! I've got my sketches (in my head) of my critter... I'll be wandering in the labryinth in the next few days. Your feller is a great welcome-wagon to the madness!
oh dear ive stopped giggling long enough to reply......... he is soo cool, even tho hes standing still, it looks as tho hes strutting his stuff.
does this new species have a name?
Truely bizarre Charlotte. !!! :dance: :dance: I better pull my finger out aye? and get somethingdone, MMmm???
Well, his name came to me in the dark hours before daylight...and then I couldn't see to write it down...and I just asked my Hubby...what is his name...he said "Pherd"...I think, considering how many times I have made him watch Labyrinth with me...that is a perfect name... he lives in David Bowies hair...cause that's the only place there is any room...surely not in those leggings..don't ya think?? :crackup: :crackup: :crackup:
Hugs &
LOL LOL :crackup: living in bowies hair !!!!
he has great feet, and well done for being the first to get something done ...
