If the 66 is a regular short shank check with Jenny at Sew Classic - I've been wishing over on her site lately too.
You don't see triple posts very often. You are one talented poster! Anywho...I have heard of Sew Classic before, but I haven't been able to check out her site. Could you post the link? Also, I don't know if my 66 is a short shank or not. Does it say in the owner's manual?
If your 66 has a side clamp, then it will take regular short shank attachments. If it's a back clamp, you're limited.
Thanks Charlee. Please forgive my ignorance as I am a new VSM owner. I'm not sure what clamps are. Do you mean the screw that holds the feet on? That thing is on the side of the needle. There is a little lever on the back of the needle area that drops the foot off so you can put another one back on. When I remove the assembly to replace it with a walking foot, that screw is on the side. Does that help?

Also, the sew classic that everyone talks about, is that online or is it a brick and mortar shop somewhere?

Thank you.

It's side clamping (or screw! ;) ) Sounds like it's got a modern foot assembly on it.

Sew Classic is an online shop...
I have to go hang out at sew classic then, see if I can find anything on my wish list. It does have a more modern foot assembly. I would love to have one of those little edger things. I used one with my friend and her bernina and I fell in love. They would make binding on the Singer SOOOO much easier...and some finishing touches on some other stuff I have around here.

Thanks again!
