Size of logical volume fedora/root changed from 8.47 GiB (2168
extents) to 18.51 GiB (4738 extents).
Logical volume root successfully resized
resize2fs 1.42.12 (29-Aug-2014)
Filesystem at /dev/mapper/fedora-root is mounted on /; on-line resizing
required
old_desc_blocks = 1, new_desc_blocks = 2
The filesystem on /dev/mapper/fedora-root is now 4851712 (4k) blocks long.
and that worked. Will reboot before doing anything else.

Is it possible for you to keep the backup for now?
If so run the following commands:
1) Keep the backup
# mv /var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora21.qcow2
/var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora21.qcow2.orig
2) Copy the resized qcow2 from thumb drive to
/var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora21.qcow2
3) Boot up the VM and provide the following output:

Once this info is provided we can advise on how to expand the
filesystem.
gparted increased the partition size of vga2, but now I need to grow
the root in it. It has been too many years since I use to do this
stuff. :(

You have (re)start the virtual machine and increase and
reorganise your storage from inside the virtual machine the same
way as your would do it with a physical machine.
The details depend on the current structure of your (virtual)
disk. How did you originally create your VMs disk image?
Usually you may have:
Partition 1: biosboot or efi
Partition 2: Linux file system /boot
Partition 3:
either (a) a filesystem containing all your data
or (b) a LVM VG, containing a logical volume with a file
system for root.
What is your storage structure?
You may find some Fedora specific into at:
