Stylesheets (CSS) are just another file in plain text.

1) You can, as you discovered, create an empty one in Sigil and enter the Style code.

You can copy and paste saved snippets/or from another CSS, from Notepad(++) or any plain text editor OR

Saved Clips ( I have a dozen or so, some are templates that need completion. eg A @font { template, where I fill in the Font name and fonts filename as imported )

1b)You can move the (CONTENTS of the <styles> section to the stylesheet (remember to link the stylesheet back to that document file)

2)You can import (Add Existing) if you are working with (x)HTML export. (DOC does not use a CSS) or have a standard coding

Note stylesheets must contain the styles used in the document (there can be extras, those can be cleaned out in the end. (Tools: Delete unused styles)
