2. Click the select&move tool, you will see a yellow '+' when you mouse over a vertex,
3. Then, move it to the position that you want.
4. Select all and change the colour of it.
5. Group it together so you can copy the whole object easily. Move it by using the vertex and combine it to become a new design! (≧▽≦)/
In my opinion, I think this method is easier to align the position of the object.
