Limits for things in SQLite databases can be found here:

<http://www.sqlite.org/limits.html>

Item 1 answers your question: by default 1,000,000,000 bytes, with special 
compilation 2,147,483,647 bytes

You can extract the contents of a BLOB field and dump many ways; write it to a 
file if you want.  You might like a command-line shell tool for SQLite:

<http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite.html>

you can download from the site pre-compiled for various OSes.  It will dump the 
data in SQLite databases as SQL commands.  It will dump BLOB fields as 
hexadecimal octets.
