Scan them and then get the image printed on canvas.

Or photocopy them and then enlarge them to the required size and then use that as a template to draw on the canvas.

Put a grid on your small design. Multiply the grid by how much you want to enlarge it. For instance, if you want it to be double the size then multiply the grid size by 2. Then on the canvas draw the doubled grid (very lightly) and paint/calligraph accordingly.

I hope that made sense.

if you want the bigger size to also be a hand-done thing ... and to be absolutely accurate, the best way is to photocopy your design onto a transparency and then project it on a wall ... and trace it over onto your bigger canvas easy.
