Singer 66 Treadle for quilting ?
How do I SITD on my treadle without using a walking foot, which I am thinking there is none made for this machine, without little puckers where the seams cross each other. What settings do I need to make on the treadle machine?

Lauri,
Sew Classic sells a Low Shank straight stitch walking foot for the 66s and other Low Shankers.

I've got one on order it will be here this week.
When I did my machine cover for my Singer 66 T-2 I used the ZZ walking foot my wife had for the Bernina. It has an adapter to fit the Bernina but is basically just a Low Shank unit. It worked pretty good even if it wasn't specifically for a SS machine.

Does your 66 have back clamping feet or normal low-shank? If it's the former I don't know that there ever was a walking foot for it, if the latter Joe's advice works. You can change a back clamping presser bar for a low-shank one. I think the instructions are on Treadleon.
