Hi Fran,
I'm pretty sure that we used to use contact cement to mask off areas of
the leather, then rubbed it off. I might be wrong though, it was 36
years ago. If you try it, try it on an inconspicuous area first before
you use it on the whole purse. Kitty

Thanks very much for your help. Not having planned to take up leather
dyeing, and therefore not having researched it, I was not aware that I
had to deglaze the purse, dye it, then reglaze.
If you are dyeing the same item two different colors in different areas,
do you use masking tape or something to protect the edges of one color
when you are doing another? Like masking off the edges of a wall when
you paint the molding another color?
Thanks a lot,
Fran
