According to the folk at Penn State, you might find it beneficial to include 15% or so of your garden soil in the mix. They still haven't figured out what wondrous stuff is included in soil, but they say it is a really important constituent of potting soil.
Of course, I'm assuming that your soil hasn't had all sorts of chemical ammendments.
