the machine uses the standard 15x1 needles and the class 66 bobbins that are readily available at Walmart and other fabric getting stores! I love my Singer 66's and you should too, but if I were you see if you can get a darning plate for the machine!!

Please don't even bother with the bobbins sold at Wal-mart. They are poorly made and often cause more problems. Cindy Peters and Sew Classic sell good quality bobbins. If your machine has back clamping feet, they are a bit more difficult to find.
