[/quote] I know that usually a lining is made separately, added in at the waistband and bagged out at the hem, but would it work ok to sew the lining along with the main fabric to help give bulk to the seam when you’re sewing something like a soft delicate fine fabric? I haven't sewn any linings into my clothes so far, so it was just a thought.

@WildAtlanticWay yes you can use the method you mention, it is called underling, where you sew both the main fabric and an underling fabric as if it were one fabric. I use a fine plain cotton lawn
from here. depending on your outer fabric you may need to add a lining as well. Article in Threads in a good read
