A coverstitch machine can also be used for topstitching and hems. But it's in no way needed.
Suggested fabrics: Light to medium weight cotton jersey, viscose jersey or similar. Choose a fabric that is more on the firm than on the slippery side. At least 20% stretch on the crossgrain.
Note: I suggest you use a program like Adobe Reader for the printing. It's great for PDF patterns, free download here. Print on A4 or Letter size paper. Instructions included.
