You don't "farm" for them - you can technically, but the drop rate is really low - you make them. In your Leatherworking book you should have three recipes:
Magnificence of Leather
Magnificence of Scales
Magnificent Hide
The first two share a cooldown and can be used once per day to turn 20 Exotic Leather or 20 Prismatic Scales into a Magnificent Hide, the third has no cooldown and turns 50 Exotic Leather into one Magnificent Hide.
If you're intent on farming for them the best place I've found it at the Tiller's Farm (assuming you're 90). I generally got 1 per day from 16 plots.

If you're doing Raptorleaf, plus the efficient daily Magnificence, then you're really doing the most efficient things.
Personally I had a ton of Spirits of Harmony, so I bought quite a few stacks of leather with them.
For farming leather directly? I've had solid success at Dreadwater Lake in Dread Wastes (though I haven't tried all farming locations to know how this one compares.)
The north shore has crocs/turtles, and a bit south of the lake has Bluehide Mushan (and even the moths down there provide leather.) The Bluehides provide more leather per mob, but are fewer in number. I want to say that one time (out of ~50 kills) the Bluehides directly dropped a Magnificent Leather on skin but wowhead doesn't confirm this (I have the impression magnificents are a very rare drop from
all
skinning, but don't see anything on wowhead confirming this hunch.)

I generally farm for Exotic Leather around the Skyrange area. There are a ton of goats that walk around in mobs of 5-7. You can gather up a decent amount of leather in a short amount of time.
You need 20 for
Magnificence of Leather
And then you need 50 for
Magnificent Hide
If you're trying to make the 553 gear, you also need 2
Magnificent Hide
for
Hardened Magnificent Hide
, which has a daily cooldown.

Best farm spot for leather that I found is Timeless Isle where people kill everything for 'kill 20 elites' daily and mostly don't skin (especially turtles).

Just curious, how good is leatherworking for moneymaking? I hate threads that start with one question, so I thought I'd ask here.
Depends on your server population (and server balance for now). Typically the 553 belts are good sellers, the pants aren't as good because you could get tier pants from the Celestials on the TI.
