To change the given direct speech into indirect speech :

My mother said to my sister that she had done it herself.

1) An indirect speech is the form of speech in which we report an event of the past or a statement made by another in our own words.

2) There are a few rules to change a direct speech into an indirect speech:

• The statement always begins with the speaker followed by "said to" or "told" followed by the addressee.

• Here, the speaker is 'my mother', and she is addressing 'my sister'. So, the sentence would begin with "My mother said to my sister..."

• First person changes into third person. Here, 'I' and 'myself', referring to my mother, change into "she", and "herself" respectively.

• Simple past tense changes into past perfect. Therefore, "did" changes into "had done".
