If by regular you mean the same ones that say a singer 15 o 66 would use (forget the designation 15 x something) then yes, thats what it it takes. Oh wait..... I am just assuming we are working on an old singer?

This one had been out in a garden, too. Mizkaki went with me to pick it up. I found that the needle bar on tree goes through a tube and that was the sticking point for this machine. The parlour cabinet Is really interesting on these. The irons actually look OK without the cabinet outside attached. I am actually just finishing up the irons that came with this machine. The last patent date on mine is 1916, but it is from the rear slide plate and I don't know if it is original to the machine. The serial number from behind the pillar is c129673

Singer sphinx is a model (1)27 and takes "regular" old sewing machine needles.

If'n I had the cash, I'd be on my way down there to get them. I'd like to play with that 101. I could make a peg leg for the cabinet. LOL.

I was asked to move this to this thread from the other one I posted on because it is more of a discussion group. I was looking for some help on identifying an old sewing machine I purchased. I have a couple of photos, one closeup of the metal logo, and some other longer shots. I searched all the google images trying to find this logo, but was unsuccessful. If you have any info, it would be greatly appreciated. If not, that's ok, I had a great time looking at everyone's antique sewing machine

Someone suggested that it might be a Demorest??? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I love old things and might have a go at cleaning up this beauty

I don't find "Queen" listed under badge names used by White, but will keep looking. Do you have a link to a White sewing machine that looks like this?

Here is another Queen treadle, from a different angle:
