Hi,
Have you tried to extent the ext2 partition in gparted after cloning your 8GB stick to the 16GB stick?
Btw. you can also copy partitions with gparted.
I usually approach tasks like these with a PartedMagic Live CD as all tools are there (But of course it can be done also in LL.):
* Clonzilla for cloning of partitions or the whole device to another device
* Gparted to resize the partition(s).
To be more precise with help/ advise it would be helpful if you posted the output relevant to your USB stick(s) of
$ sudo fdisk -l
