I'm not sure if I understand your question totally, could use a little more info, but here goes:

1. You can use the model edge to close your sketch. After drawing the outline, use amdt_1profile or amprofile to profile your sketch (depending on whether you used a polyline or a line). You will be asked to: Select part edge to close the profile <open profile>, then choose the model edges to close your profile. You must choose all bounding edges on that sketch plane to close your profile.

2. If you are using a model edge to close a sketch, that sketch or feature cannot be copied onto another sketch plane.
 
Thank you very much.It will be helpful for me your reponse.
