pattern instructions: mccalls 9603

I got this pattern because there are NO kwik sew dealers in town anymore. I'll order an easier pattern but I'm getting started on this one in the meantime.



The pants look really simple.



The vest, not so much.



Do I really need to HAND SEW the contrast binding onto the vest? Can't it be stitched on the machine I realize it might look different but I hate hand sewing.



Also, is basting hand basting, or can I use my machines baste stitch? Or fabric spray adhesive?
