I’m working on my first project, which is a simple bookmark. I’m using 4/6 veg tan leather. The issue is with the dyeing. The first image (lighter color) was done using a wool dauber. It’s uneven because I had to go over some areas that didn’t get into the stamping. The darker one was an attempt at submersing in the dye and it looks horrible and worse, it’s really stiff. Do you have any suggestions, I’m really disappointed.
