Seems to be OK, You should be able to continue to use it.

To what instructions do you refer?
How do I actually increase the partitions within the image?
I have looked at instructions at:
https://dnaeon.github.io/resizing-a-kvm-disk-image-on-lvm-the-hard-way/
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/349586/resize-qcow2-root-parition
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/615216/how-to-increase-the-root-...
But am really cautious on what to do next to actually have the larger
partitions.
I tried
parted -l fedora21.qcow2
As the next step, put it just showed my physical drives.
