Just a POINT of note.  Since SQL Lite has moved to “flexible typing” (its been 
a while) they have also added a strict datatype table

Which I have been using myself.

For this case, rather than

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "test" (
        "value" BLOB NOT NULL
);

You would use

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "test" (
        "value" BLOB NOT NULL
) STRICT;

Then all types are returned as defined, and inserts may fail (IMO correctly) 
whereas before they would succeed.

I have found creating strict tables correct this an other issues (such as a 
string that has the value 00001234 being automatically converted to an integer, 
and then the value.toString() returning “1234”)

@Christian Ehrlicher you beat me to the punch.

If you dump out the value (not the size) you will see the QVariant is a of type 
QString not QByteArray

        const auto value = query.value(0);
        qDebug() << "value = " << value;
        auto tmp = QVariant( value.toByteArray() );
        qDebug() << "tmp = " << tmp;

value =  QVariant(QString, "v10I-F½L\u009C{░?x\u009B)δ\u001EG#?????fóu??H")
tmp =  QVariant(QByteArray, 
"v10I-F\xC2\xABL\xC2\x9C{\xC2\xB0\xEF\xBF\xBDx\xC2\x9B)\xC3\xAB\x1EG#\xDE\xA6\xEF\xBF\xBD\xEF\xBF\xBD\xEF\xBF\xBD\xEF\xBF\xBD""f\xC2\xA2u\xEF\xBF\xBD\xEF\xBF\xBD\xC4\xA6")

This is the root cause of the problem.

Ive hit this before, the query.value function should return a QByteArray type 
of QVariant, not a QString type when the column type is of type blob.

    auto record = db.record( "test" );
    qDebug() << "record =" << record;

returns the correct record type

record = QSqlRecord(1)
 0: QSqlField("value", QByteArray, tableName: "test", required: yes, generated: 
yes, autoValue: false, readOnly: false) ""

Whats interesting, is in my qsql_sqlite.cpp (the driver for the sql database,

sqlite3_column_decltype16 returns "BLOB" but sqlite3_column_type returns 
SQLITE_TEXT

in the init columns function, to determine which Qt type to use, it first gets 
the string name of the column, if empty then use  sqlite3_column_type otherwise 
it uses qGetColumnType

So the Record is correct, but the return type is of QString not QByteArray

Your database looks strange to me - even though your column type according to 
the schema is BLOB:

sqlite> .schema
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "test" (
         "value" BLOB NOT NULL
);

the return value of sqlite3_column_type() is SQLITE_TEXT (3).

Therefore the return value is treated as string and the data is screwed up. If 
I change the return value to SQLITE_BLOB (4) in the debugger, all is correct:

qDebug() << value.toByteArray().toHex();
