Depends on what we're building. You didn't specify what you're building, or the materials you're using, so it's kind of hard to make a good recommendation. But usually it's a good idea to use a material similar to what your gussetting.
For example, when we make stuff out of 1/16" thick aluminum tubing, we usually make gussets out of 1/16" thick sheet aluminum. Cut to size with a bandsaw or snips, and drill holes for rivets, then clamp to the part and drill a hole for the first rivet, install the rivet, drill the next hole, rivet, etc.
