To move, rotate a selection (or a path) you need to select it in the transform tool options you are using

But that's not how I would do it, I would use the Symmetry Painting (go to the top menu Windows > Dockable Dialogs > Symmetry Painting if it's not showing up)
Put it in a Mirror, and check Horizontal, Vertical, Central.
On a new layer above, select a brush, dab one point, then hit the Shift key and stay on it, then move your brush, dab the next point, etc... once it's done, go to Layer > Alpha to selection, then go to Select > Remove hole, then select layer below in the layer stack/dialog and hit Delete
