Higher quality hides are harder to turn into high quality leather and, unless you have very good leatherworking skill and lye, it will turn into lower quality leather.
When making leather try to use the smallest amount of lye possible as the entire amount is used. To do this, make the lye in a water skin then place 11 potatoes into a jar and then fill that jar with lye. Using this method you will only use 0.08kg of lye on each hide.
