In a mixing bowl, combine blueberries, white sugar, lemon juice, and lemon thyme. Stir until berries are well-coated; set aside.
On a clean surface, lay out four slices of sourdough bread. Distribute half of the grated cheeses evenly over these slices.
Spoon the blueberry mixture onto the cheesy slices, followed by the remaining cheese. Top with the other four slices of bread.
