Part Trouble

(OP)
I am "new" to inventor but seem to be getting a good grasp of it. I am creating a cup like part but having trouble drawing one of the components....

The part I am drawing is VERY similar to a ladle.  I got the "cup" part done but I am having trouble with the "handle".  I cannot draw the handle attached to the cup.   I do not know how to get the handle to go "UP on a ANGLE".  If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

RE: Part Trouble

Sounds like you need to sweep a section along a path.  Create a sketch on the mid plane of the cup then sketch the handle path.  Then place another sketch perp top this for the profile.  Then sweep.
