Crafters - I need some help!

Can anyone recommend a company/person who would make me faces in felt with interchangeable noses, lips, eyes, hair, ears? I know I could do it myself but I am a terribly impatient person and am awful at cutting things out - they look like a 2 year old did then and felt is really quite expensive to be practising on! I need at least 15 sets so it would be a lot of work and quite a big investment on my part. I have googled and ebayed and a couple of people I have contacted have said no so thought I'd ask you lovely people for any recommendations.

I think if you cut out templates for the face shapes it wouldn't be so daunting. Couldn't you ask (bribe) someone to do it for you. Felt sqaures are cheap - you can get them in sainsbos for a couple of quid for 10. I'm sure a bespoke job would end up costing loads more.0

I've seen guides on cutting felt with a die-cutter, if you could find one of those for a reasonable price it might work out cheaper and with the option to use in the future for other projects without any additional investment..
