Picking out those quilting stitches is the worst. This is why I often get off to such a slow start with quilting. I want to know the machine is doing what I expect before I get more than a few inches. I have this little bit of anxiety every time I change the bobbin. Mostly because I fear the picking. You'll make it through.
I found there was a thread crosswound on the bobbin, causing nasty tension issues. Should have checked sooner, rather than thinking "it will only be that one spot, I can come back and get it later"

Psalm 5:11&12 (KJV) But let all those that put their trust in Thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because Thou defendest them: let them also that love Thy Name be joyful in Thee. For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

I feel your pain, unpicking on the longarm is so time consuming. What went wrong?
