Leathercraft Tool

Not to beat a dead horse with this subject after the past furious
discussion, but I'm just wondering if I'm doing something wrong. It
seems that no matter which method I use to wet the leather (sponge,
submersing, even waiting for all the bubbles to stop) I'm having this
problem. Maybe it's just that I'm too slow, bit I don't think so.
After unwrapping my leather the next day, it usually takes a looooong
time for the natural color of the leather to return to the grain side.
Once it does, from this point on the drying process seems to shift into
high gear and it almost always dries quicker than I can finish the
tooling. I always wind up having to add moisture to finish.
