"Select->From Path" will create a selection from the active path. The "active path" is usually the last path you've created or edited. You can make another path active by opening the Paths Dialog ("Windows->Dockable Dialogs->Paths") and clicking on the thumbnail preview of the appropriate path.

Bonus from that dialog: button(s) that convert path to selection (and selection to path, etc) with the option of combining (add / subtract / intersect) with current selection. Look at the tooltips to learn what keys to hold while clicking the buttons.
