New Clutch Slipping

I did some digging into the message board archives but couldn't find anyone with my exact issue....
I just completed a total clutch system replacement, master, clutch line, pressure plate, friction disc, and slave. I bled the system correctly and took the car out for a spin to test, maybe about 5 miles roundtrip. The car drove fine, but I took it easy on the shifting just in case.
Yesterday after about a mile or two and while cruising in 3rd gear, the car began to slip, or what I can only describe as a slip, as the car sounded like it was puttering out and lurching badly. It was constant and only went away when I pressed the clutch pedal.
I've read that a new clutch can slip a bit, but this seems extreme. I checked for leaks in the system and there aren't any. Has this happened to anyone else? Any suggestions?
