Place mat.

I was asked to come up with something for a man that was about to Retire. This is what I have made so far. The design was a UFO I had stitched out combined a Design by sick and Glen Harris to make the picture. I was practicing how to combine designs ages ago. Then added my words to it. As it wasn't wide enough I added print fabric to the sides.
What do you think?
This couple have had about 2 years of the wife having to travel 300 kilometres weekly for Cancer treatment so I wanted to give them something to smile about.

Thank you. Treatment not over yet but less trips to the city from the country. She is doing much better.
