Thanks, got it. Turns out there's a shop not far from me.
It would be cool if you got yourself scanned so you can share the experience with everyone. They give you one free pattern when you get scanned, but they only give you a few to choose from. I got a button down blouse and have made several of them. It is wonderful not to have to make any adjustments to the pattern at all. The location near you is their headquarters.
After you get scanned, they send you an email a week or so later and ask you to take some measurements, then email them back. Makes perfect sense when you consider that the scan can only do so much.
They give you a catalog of patterns you can buy. The patterns are around $18-20 each and are printed on about 20 lb paper (same as regular copy paper). When you order an item, you can get it with different collars or different sleeves for a small fee. The patterns are wonderful - the 5 pocket jeans pattern is their most popular.
