I've been on-again off-again playing around with taking in my own shirts. Anyone else? Would love to trade tips with someone who has it down pat. I've got it down well enough to be comfortable doing it and wearing them, looking good enough from the outside. On the inside I'd like to get better at making everything clean.

A great idea - sometimes if you simply go step by step it all works out.

The cutter and Tailor forum was a great resource but seems to be gone.
