This buggy rug is part of the 'Adam Tement Collection'. Adam Tement (1962-1990) lived in Launceston and was a serious collector of Australian pottery of which he had a very fine national collection. He later "fell in love with quilts" [Di Tement]. Adam died of cystic fibrosis and the quilts are now owned by his mother Di.
