Janet Harris, left, and her sister Susan Bailey own Harris Hill Farm in New Milford. Cow and Baskets displayed on one of their barns is part of the New Milford Barn Quilt Trail. The pattern, which includes cows, is an homage to their great-grandfather, who was one of the first importers of brown Swiss cows in the country.

NEW MILFORD Sometimes, when Saun Ellis peeks out her window, she can see cars pulling up next to the driveway of the farm she owns with her husband, Francisco Drohojowski, on Upland Road. The curious visitors get out of the car and crane their necks to look up at the large quilt square attached to the carriage house barn.
