Looks the next step is:
lvextend -r -l +100%FREE /dev/vga2/root
?

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.orig2) Copy the resized qcow2 from thumb drive to /var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora21.qcow23) 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?
