Hu, who started learning to weave at age 16, explains that the workshop was established in 2000 to develop new techniques, while learning traditional techniques from the tribe's elders. The Natulan Workshop's many creations, from handbags and backpacks to mobile phone cases and shawls, are very popular with both tribe members and visitors.
胡秀蘭指出，自己從 16 歲開始學織布，民國 89 年成立工作室後，一方面創新技法，一方面向部落裡的長輩們學習正統的古老技法，以期能在不喪失傳統文化特色下有所突破，舉凡手提袋、背包、手機袋、披肩等等，都廣受部落和到訪遊客的歡迎。
