Where can I buy replacement cuffs for a coat?

Call JoAnn Fabrics store, I believe that they sell them.
I'm sure most of the larger fabric stores have them. You could also look on their web sites. Where I live besides JoAnn Fabrics, there is also Hancock Fabrics and I think they are pretty much nation wide too.
