Is there a method to use the small leftover bars of Ivory soap and make big bars from it?

The best and easiest way to use up bars of soap is to attach it to a "new" bar of soap.

It depends on the shape of the bars you’re trying to attach together; the more flat the bars are the easier it is to have them adhere together.

If you’re asking about rebatching the soap pieces, then it is a lot of work and not worth the extra work.

Something else that some people do, is to put the pieces in muslin bags, and use them like a soap/wash cloth combo.

I second that. I put my leftover soap pieces in a sisal bag, so I can use them as an exfoliant.
