She said, “I have been sewing from morning until now.” ( The next day, you report her statement )
Answer: A
Correct answer: She said that she had been sewing from morning until then.
The present perfect continuous have been sewing moves back to the past perfect continuous, and now becomes then. Reporting the next day makes the second change necessary: now would point at the moment of reporting, not the moment of speaking.
