Fat fingers - lol! I didn't have a problem going over the seams for the most part. I use a titanium embroidery needle, and always start with a new needle. I find that helps a lot.
The front of the jacket was even worse than the back for seams.
One of the things that I do with jean jackets is I don't try to hoop the jacket. I hoop the stabilizer, then pin the jacket in place to the stabilizer. I find that makes it much easier to work awkward places.
