So I want to make some bible cases. Im ambitious and like to bite off more then I can chew. With that being said I want to do a nice tooled veg tan cover on the bible case with the rest of it thinner, softer chrome tan. What stain and what color chrome tan should I get to make these two different leathers look like they are the same project.

Also I live 5 hrs away from the nearest leather supply store. I have to order everything online. Specifics will be appreciated.

What I would suggest is that you choose a colour for your chrome tan leather that will go with any colour you decide to use with your veg tan leather. Think of colours like black or grey or use a colour wheel. I wouldn't go with a leather stain as it will probably sit on top of the leather and rub off with use.

I'd stay with basic brown. Chrome tan pre-dyed in brown and veg tan accents dyed any shade of brown
