@Gernella its still only £5.30 for 1000 metres!
However I have found this site which sells them individually.

Glad you brought this up because I bought some sets from William Gee but I’d like to get individual colours now.

@AnthonyExmouth Yes, the Janome sewist 725s is model 507LE.
They are the same machine, you do not have the sewing machine equivalent of a dodgy 'cut and shut' car where two different cars are combined to make a single vehicle!

Gütermann Mara 100 is the same as their SewAll, just bigger spools with a card tube inner rather than on a plastic spool.  Mara 120 is a little bit thinner.
Also available from Marent Crafts

@BrendaP yes I like the 120 as it works very nicely on the overlocker, coverstitch and sewing machine.  Less bulk with it.

That's a good price for 120 @Ohsewsimple  I came a bit  unstuck with the 5000 meters I bought cheap.  I started off with it in a large mug, threaded it through an old anglepoise lamp and threaded down to my Pfaff via a push on large spool holder. Bit Heath Robinson but it worked.  Fortunately I only bought three.

The larger spools I have are mostly Toldilock from Samuel Taylors for the overlocker but I have to thread these through stand alone holders so usually I have two 120 on and Toldilock on the other
separate stand.
