Magento2 - Error when trying to edit theme in Content>Design>Configuration

Hi - I am using MAgento2 and the Lumia theme. I am not sure what changes I made, but when I tried to edit the theme from Content > Design > Configuration page last week, I got the following error:

There has been an error processing your request

Exception printing is disabled by default for security reasons.

Error log record number: 309994647556

I took a look at the file in var/report and can't figure it out - this is the start of the message - don't want to paste the entire file here!

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I can't open that page at all anymore!

Thanks much
