First, for completeness...

ls -lZ ~/.gnupg

And you are running these versions?

thunderbird-enigmail-1.8.2-1.fc21.x86_64
thunderbird-31.7.0-1.fc21.x86_64

If you do a

gpg --list-public-keys     you don't see your public key?

I have an F21 VM and I just did what I think all of what you did and I was able to send a signed message without trouble.  I'm using KDE as my desktop
