Cover with fresh water and cook until tender. Drain well. Put cloves, cinnamon, and mustard seed in a cheesecloth bag and add to sugar and vinegar. Bring to a boil. Turn off heat and let stand for 15 minutes. Add well drained watermelon pieces, and cook gently until clear and transparent (about 10 minutes). Pack at once in sterilized jars.
