Meet Your Seller
Plumb Crazy Vintage is run by treasure hunter Joan Plumb, finding vintage, antique, and delightfully unique pieces with personality. I collect because I love the thrill of the hunt—and giving special finds a second life in a new home. If it makes me smile, it made the cut. I usually ship the 1st business day after purchase. By purchasing from me you are contributing to my local food bank in Sequim (pronounced Skwim) Washington. I give a portion of my proceeds to them each quarter.

Vtg PIN-IT Skirt Marker - Hem Marking Tool - Adjustable Wood Ruler w/ Metal Base
Vintage Pin-It Skirt Marker - Vintage Hem Marking Tool for Sewing / Tailoring
The must-have tool every home seamstress had in the 1950s-70s for marking a perfectly even hem!
This is the original ORCO Pin-It Skirt Marker, made in the USA. You stand it on the floor, set the desired hem height on the wooden ruler (your pin guide locks with the thumb screw), and turn around slowly while your helper slides pins through the guide into the skirt. Gives you a perfectly level hem every time.
Features:
• Original wood ruler marked "PIN-IT SKIRT MARKER" - clear, readable numbers
• Chrome sliding pin guide with W-shaped chalk/pin channel
• Heavy tripod base for stability - won't tip
• Thumb-screw lock - holds your height setting
• Adjustable - marks up to 20" from floor
Condition: Good vintage used condition. Base shows age-appropriate wear and patina. Wood ruler has normal wear but markings are crisp and dark. Metal guide slides smoothly and locks securely. No bends or cracks. Ready to use or display in your sewing room.
A great working tool for vintage sewing enthusiasts, costume makers, quilters, and tailors - or wonderful decor for a sewing room!
