You've got some cool stuff. :)

What model number is on the front of the Touch & Sew? That's a slant shank machine and it has a wind-in-place bobbin. Be careful buying bobbins for this one because there are two others that look VERY similar to the one this needs, and you can even fill them - but when you go to sew with them, you get a mess under the needle plate.

The zipper foot looks like it might be for a slant shank - hard to tell for sure.

The even feed foot will fit your 66 as long as your 66 is a side-clamping style. I don't see the vintage even feed feet for low shank nearly as often as I see the ones for slants, for some reason.

You've also got a binder, edgestitcher and gathering foot.

No clue as to the spool roller thingie. :)

And it looks like you've got an original manual and a snap-on shank and a guide for a Singer Genie. You might want to list those on eBay - people who love their Genie's would probably buy this, as pretty and clean as it is.

Have fun! :)

I'm thinking the even feed might fit the slant needle (touch and sew). Is it possible to get a picture from a different angle on the spool thingy? Oh yeah, I have a Genie without a manual--I've copied one, but no original.
