It looks to me like you either have a namespace issue, or you're trying to add the wrong type somewhere. For example, if UserControl1 is a WPF control (which it appears to be), you can't add that to a windows forms panel. Use the Canvas class instead. The windows forms host is for hosting windows forms controls inside a WPF window.
