Update with all the letters filled in. There's still some cleanup work to be done, but start on those ciphers, folks!

I'm pretty sure the spaces are correct, but there's a slight chance they're letters and some other letter is a space...

Hmm, nothing obvious from that.

Why not use numbers instead of letters, then figure out words from the patterns i.e. doubles more likely to be e, o, s, l etc, most common number = 'e'

Wish I didn't have to work!

The cipher changes slightly after every period (either that or my key still has some big errors in it). I can still work around it, tho.

I'm gonna guess that that blank in there is an apostrophe....

I think its suppossed to be too-long instead of too long. (I broke from your key) oops :)

Also I have 'DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE IS TURN. '
that should read 'DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE TO TURN.'

so the final should read roughly:

I KNOW THAT MY DAD TRUSTED YOU AND I COULD USE YOUR HELP.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE TO TURN.
IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG,
I SHOULD HAVE HEARD BY NOW.
NONE OF OUR PLANS HAVE WORKED OUT.
I KNOW THAT THEY
ARE STILL OUT THERE BUT WHERE?
DO YOU KNOW?
HAVE YOU HEARD?
CAN YOU HELP?
THIS IS ALL MY FAULT.
I WISH I UNDERSTOOD WHAT I DID. ??

Unbelievable work! Very Happy

But...

What does it actually mean?

Is note from James Avery?
If so, Avery's father was involved previously? (Maybe Avery = Mulder - Joke!)
Who is 'still out there'?
Who is being asked for help?

Hmmmmm Question

Cheers to all of us. But I was stunned when I divvied up the tapestry and came up with something.

There are still some odd things:

What are the two characters at the end?

Considering tihs was in the ZIP file w/ the Avery photos, is this some sort of communication to Ormond from wherever Avery is?
