What movie am I thinking of??

In the same vein as the "Animated films of our childhood" thread, but without the resolution. :) I have vivid memories of one particular animated movie that I saw when growing up, but I can't remember the name! It's driven me crazy off and on, and today I will (with your help!) hopefully put this enduring mystery to rest.

When: It's old enough that substantial internet searching has gotten me nowhere. I'd guess it was made in the 80s or early 90s.

Description: This will all sound terribly vague, but here goes: The main character is a girl. She has a father, I think. She also has some sort of smaller pet-type creature (a unicorn?) with the ability to fly/jump very far. The antagonist is a witch with the power to turn people into wood, creating generic wooden bodies that she uses to build a fortress. I *think* that she uses some sort of wand to do this, but I'm not sure. I don't remember why the girl is trying to stop her, but I believe at one point she is turned into wood on top of her father's also-transformed body.

And it isn't "The Last Unicorn." :)

Anyone have any clue? I will be eternally grateful if someone solves this for me. Thanks!!
 
Yes, that's it!! I did more internet searching based on "unico" and the movie I was thinking of is "Unico in the Island of Magic." The name isn't familiar to me at all, nor the plot, but some of the scenes match up precisely with my memories. Thanks a ton for solving this for me. :)
