I really haven't spent much time trying this but is it possible to take geometry that was created in one sketch and move it to another sketch?

I didn't think it would be as simple as that, thanks.
 
You can also make a derived sketch and then "underive" it so that you can make changes.

For complex sketches with many entities, it's generally faster than cut-paste through the Windows clipboard.

also, create a new sketch then drag (or ctrl-drag) the old sketch from the feature tree to the new sketch.
